Is it the same surgery Forsberg had?

Foppa was never the same.

Holy frank, that guy must have had a dozen attempted comebacks.

- Atomic Wedgie

I quickly realized that asking Frenchie a question isn't going to work, because he's both obtuse and a douchebag.

Sounds like the ankle injuries are different:

Forsberg:

Karlsson:

Both sound nasty.

Who the hell is Foppa?

Edit: I was not aware that was Forsberg's nickname

Different surgery. Same region. Karlsson had an artificial tendon shoved into his ankle

But since it's the holiday season:

Forsberg had a well-earned reputation as a diver.

So opposing fans would call him Floppa.

Can't wait until he returns after the Russians somehow don't win the Gold

He's signed for 2 years over there.... his ex-wife died last year which means he has to take care of both his sons who lived in Russia in the last 3 years.

I don't see him coming back.... even if Bergervin somehow stopped being such a goddamn stupid female genitalia and begged him for forgiveness.

I couldn't say, he's obviously not the best at winning battles along the boards or being that responsible defensively (which are important parts of 5 on 5 play).

But he's obviously someone who can produce in different situations, which makes him deserving of quality icetime both on the powerplay and at 5 on 5.

- Scabeh



Makes him worth something in a trade

Or hopefully he signs a team friendly deal and we keep him....I wouldn't keep him and let him walk...JMO.

ya maybe....pretty sure Leivo could stand in front and collect garbage goals. I like JVR I just don't think he's great. If we can get something for him I'd do it now...can't see us winning the cup this year...so why not recoup something.
- annoyed

Not like JVR, no.
He's 3rd on the team in scoring. You are not replacing his points with 3rd/4th liner/AHL'er.

Sorry no.
Plus the leafs plan on having a deep run in the playoffs, he wont be traded now, that's just foolish.

If they turn it around, they just might nab that coveted 9th place spot in the east!

It's crazy how old that team is. All the players are either in their prime or leaving it.

Only 3 guys will be under the age of 25 by Feb. 1st.
