Forsberg a Pred.

[PDO]

Hey Ang?

Where are you?

Best team in the league.

Scottie Upshall, Ryan Parent, a first round pick and a third round pick.

Holy ****.

Re: Forsberg a Pred.

They've been my pick for a while...

Watch out now...

Re: Forsberg a Pred.

I picked them to win the presidents trophy in my hockey pool back in September.

Philly did well.

Of course I took Philly on the proline too and get Forsberg being scratched.

Unbelievable price they paid - but this move puts them right over the top in my mind.

I was on the Leafs before he was scratched.

Huge price, yes. Especially if he continues to struggle health wise...

Re: Forsberg a Pred.

Very steep price for a rental player.

Forsberg is a bad night's sleep away from retirement...

...he is also a good night's sleep away from being the best player in the NHL.

Preds are scary now - good news for me is the Flames already have enough problems with the Preds as it is, so this move really doesn't make much of a difference to me.

The Preds better pray that he stays healthy!

I can't wait to watch the Preds eliminate Pronger and his Ducks...

If he can play at 80% in the playoffs, Nashville is clearly the scariest team in the league. Forsberg is the type of player that made Philly a decent team when he's in the lineup. What he'll do for a team like Nashville is just scary to think.

I like it by Nashville, huge price or not. That's the type of move that wins you a Stanley Cup - banners are forever.

I liked the Flyers before he was scratched... they've been playing very well with Forsberg in the lineup and Leighton has looked like a servicable goalie.

Can't see any chance of them winning now

I'll prefer watching them eliminate Iginla and his Flames.

I just hope I don't have to watch them eliminate Smyth and his Oilers...

Ducks have the goaltending.

Preds don't.

I'll take the Ducks that match-up.

I agree. I'd be ecstatic if I were a Preds fan. The huge upside is worth the risk.

Preds don't.

Look at Vokoun's and Mason's numbers...

Playoffs are a different story.

Ask Roli.

Definitely. I didn't think by any stretch that it'd cost the likes of a blue chipper, a 1st, a pretty solid roster player who still has nice upside and another pick that becomes a 1st if Foppa resigns...

But if Forsberg can play the way he has the last few weeks and doesn't get hurt, it's hard to see Nashville not winning the cup baring some terrible luck.
