"Forsberg's Pain"

So, much has said about JR's injuries. Now im not going to bash Forsberg again since I am happy he is now a Flyer.


However, he has had his share of injuries. I doubt he will play 82 games. In fact when he played over seas last season. He had a knee injury and a nasty concussion. This came on the heels of him telling fans he would never return to the NHL, and wants to raise his kids in his native Sweden.

So does he really want to even play in the NHL? Is his body too torn up to return to form? Is it at all possible to keep him and JR? If so how so?

Flyers will have a press conferance 10 am Thursday morning.

So many casual fans will be turned off by this move. Most casual fans honestly have very little idea who Forsberg is. Liza actually vowed never to go to a Flyers game again. I love Forsberg, but I don't know if he wil reach casual fans that the Flyers might be looking for after pissing off their fans during the lockout.
