Foot, great chart. For a change, look at this:



“We’re proud to announce to our fans that Peter Forsberg (R) has decided to come back and play with our franchise where he’s enjoyed so much success early in his career,” said Avalanche Executive Vice President and General Manager Francois Giguere. “His addition should complement our roster and will bring our team to an even higher competitive level.”

“Over the last several months, I have worked extremely hard in order for this to be possible. I am looking forward to putting this jersey on again,” said Forsberg. “I have so many great memories of my playing days in Denver. I’m excited about helping my new teammates and former teammates in the coming weeks, and hopefully I am able to do that in the very near future.”

Forsberg, 34, was selected sixth overall in the 1991 Entry Draft by the Philadelphia Flyers before being dealt to the Quebec Nordiques on June 30, 1992. He made his NHL debut with the Nordiques during the 1994-95 season, where he tallied 50 points (15g/35a) in 47 games during the shortened season, earning him the Calder Trophy as the league’s top rookie. During his next nine seasons in Colorado, he would go on to win two Stanley Cups (1996, 2001); capture the Hart Trophy as NHL MVP (2003); and appear in seven All-Star games. During his MVP season, he led the NHL in scoring with 106 points (29g/77a) in 75 games. He was named a First-Team NHL All-Star three times (1998, 1999, 2003) while with Colorado.

…….But he will not play tonight in a crucial game against the LA Kings. Why? Because he has some immigration problems. In its immense wisdom, the INS, that we all admire, has declared Peter the Great an immigrant “sin papeles”. I do not know the details. He was born in Sweden and is apparently waiting somewhere in Canada for a visa to show up while bureaucracy sleeps and the Lowlands of Colorado stay infested with OMEGAS sin papeles, who don’t need visas.
