I thought it was offical? Forsberg seems to be hurt alot

It is official that Forsberg is the new captain.

i feal that a C should lead by example... so the ? is  "is that the type of guy you want setting the example for your team. Hitch won the cup w/ a C on Hatchers chest so......I guess what Imtrying to say is foesberg is a bumb and the flyers should dump him but if that were to happen knowing my luck ,and the fact that Tom Hicks only has half a brain , foresberg would be in a STARS jersey 10 min later
                                        

I don't know how you can call a guy a bum when over the last 4 years he has averaged (as far as I can tell) more points per game in the regular season and playoffs than anyone else in the league. I couldn't find anywhere to check them on line so I picked 5 guys that I thought might be close to him. Here are the stats.
Regular season points per game
Forsberg 1.32
Thornton 1.22
Jagr 1.16
Alfredsson 1.07
Sakic 1.03
Iginla .94
And in the playoffs his average is 1.22 with the next best being 1.02.
If that is not a good example to set I don't know what is.

IM NOT SAYING HE ISNT GOOD BUT SKILL ISNT EVERYTHING IM SIMPLEY SAYING HE IS A CHEAP SHOT TAKING DIVE ARTIST WHICH IN MY BOOK = B U M

ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF A BUM =MIKE PECA

I think Forsberg will make a good captain, and besides, I dont see anyone on the Flyers that could play the role of captain as well as forsberg.

I don't really know what could make Forsberg seem cheap unless you favorite team was dominated by his for years. I don't recall seeing him dive at any point. I'm sur ehe has embelished the odd call, i don't know anyone who hasn't but he doesn't really have a reputation for that.

Forsberg is a class act. He always has been and he always will be. You want to talk about a cheap shot artist, let's talk about Bryan Marchment who, last I heard was playing for The Stars...

OK I'LL GIVE YOU MARCHMENT AND AS A DEVILS FAN ALSO IT REALLY LEFT A BAD TASTE IN MY MOUTH NOW WITH THAT SAID NAME ONE TIME A FORESBERG TEAM EVER DOMINATED THE STARS OR DEVILS SURLEY IT WASNT WITH THE AVES LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR REPLY
