zig Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 really the Avalanche want him back?Well they are the only team that was mentioned by name in the article. The article says that a couple other teams also have an interest in him.Philadelphia Flyers general manager Paul Holmgrem said he's been contacted by a number of teams about Forsberg leading up to the Feb. 27 NHL trading deadline. But Holmgrem denied a Denver television report that the Swedish star has been given permission to speak to the Colorado Avalanche about returning to his former team. Holmgren was asked if any arrangement is in place in which Forsberg or his agent could talk to Colorado about possible interest by the Avalanche."Absolutely not," Holmgren said. "First, I seriously doubt that [reports of such talks] are true. Colorado is a team that has asked about him. Our stance all along has been when we get to that point with Peter, we'll get to that point." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJR Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 The Rangers have also been rumored to be interested. I've heard the Red Wings mentioned a couple times, too, but far less than New York or Colorado.

Brendan Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 i would love in on a line with naslund in vancouver, but i doubt it will happen with his salary and the canucks not wanting to trade prospects which i agree with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigEd76 Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 An idea that was thrown out there by ESPN was Forsberg to Atlanta for Coburn and a #1 pick.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 I don't understand the desire to have this guy, he can't stay on the ice for more than a couple of games at a time.

HedleyLamarr Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 An idea that was thrown out there by ESPN was Forsberg to Atlanta for Coburn and a #1 pick....No.For one, Forsberg can't stay healthy. Secondly, Coburn's play this season was solid. He'll be playing for the Thrashers full-time next season, since a couple defensemen will be leaving through free agency.
