Peter Forsberg's latest and last NHL comeback lasted 35 minutes over the span of two games. Pro all the way...
Forsberg didn't tally a point, picked up four penalty minutes and was a minus 4, quite the mild end to a once-spectacular 13 season career. It was yet another attempt for Foppa to reboot his Hall of Fame career, coming back from another foot surgery (a seemingly annual event dating back to 2006) that had both he and the Colorado Avalanche hoped would be mutually beneficial.
Forsberg is tenth all-time in career points-per-game and fourth all-time in career assists-per-game. He won a pair of Stanley Cups and the Hart Memorial Trophy in 2003. With the Swedish national team, he won two World Championships and two Olympic hockey gold medals. That makes him a member of the Triple Gold Club and the only Swede who has won the three competitions twice.
Now, if only Michael Schumacher could take the hint...
