It will be nice to see him win a Cup...I had him picked from the moment he was drafted to be a great player. I just wish this playoffs he could show his stuff.

Even with his talent, him coming back into the lineup might ruin some chemistry, hed be a leg behind everyone for a couple games...but then again i was concerned Corey Perry of the Ducks would be that way and he was a driving force for the Ducks winning the one game they did.

Yea, that was sorta my point, i caught some flak for people assuming i was saying they couldnt win without him, but u put him up against ovechkin and i think he wins everytime (aslong as his heads ok) sounds like to me philly has a new Eric Lindros...

its really sad, from the moment he was drafted i told my dad (a huge hockey fan) that hed be great for philly and lead them to a cup....i just never figured it would be like this...its pretty sad.

Great Forsberg article, and Welcome to Bleacher Report, im Ken (as you can see). I had a question for you, i recently did an Article about Simon Gagne and i was just wondering if he has played yet for the Flyers? Feel free to check it out, i thought it was a good article but clearly i was wrong, they may not need him.
