Forsberg to Begin Practicing with Avalanche

Yes, you read correct, Peter Forsberg will begin practicing with the Colorado Avalanche.

Colorado recently lost left winger Tomas Fleischmann for the rest of the season to blood clots in each of his lungs. Fleischmann, a left winger, has 12 goals and 19 assists totaling for 31 points, a team high of 5th best point getter.

Forsberg, who is turning out to be the NHL version of Brett Favre, also plays left wing. The saying, “One man’s misfortune is another man’s fortune” comes to mind.

There is no signed contract as of yet, and no guarantee that Forsberg will in fact be skilled enough to still play in the NHL. At 37 years of age, and out of the NHL since 2008, it will be interesting to see what all transpires.
