Hate to bring this back up but I know Floppa is a proud guy and was apparently pretty devastated about his embarassing about-face in November so I'd think he wouldn't be saying much unless he really had a good shot at coming back.
http://www.sportingnews.com/yourturn/viewtopic.php?t=337223
Says the foot is "going to be 100%" and he is "very hopeful" of a comeback before the trade deadline/roster freeze in Feb. Noncommital about potential teams, other than that it will be a contender. Also says that while he hasn't been skating he is in otherwise great shape.
Sounds like we'll know in a couple weeks if this is more drama or the real deal. |

Oooh, "sources" believe they have some information...

| Is today the day? According to sources close to Peter Forsberg, the Swedish center is ready to announce a decision on whether he will return to the NHL. The Flyers have not been informed of such, according to club president Peter Luukko. Over the weekend, the Flyers were not optimistic that Forsberg, 34, would return to the NHL this season. If he does, the Flyers appear to be his first choice. |
How awesome would it be if he calls a massive press conference just to say ".....no." _________________

Better than Scotty Nieds having a press conference every few weeks to say "......I haven't made a decision yet." _________________ Bring back the old OTP!

Dear God... please tell me I'm mis-translating this.
http://www.rds.ca/hockey/chroniques/245944.html
Are they saying Chicago has offered him $11m PER SEASON???? For this year and the next TWO? Or is it a deal that would give him $11m over the course of the 3 year contract? _________________ "Oh my God. There she is. Lovely Sally Slater. I should speak to her. But what the hell can I say?

3 years, 11M total. Not 11 per. _________________ It seems like you need to be a physics professor to choose the right TV. Luckily, I am one.

On the other hand: Are Colorado or Philly contenders?  |
