  • Forsberg was a whole lineup concentrated into one body. Amazing fvcking player

  • i cant believe people say datsyuk and forsberg are the same player. datsyuk has nothing on him

  • #21

  • Now I remember why I idolized him as a kid. Such a unique player

  • Oh i remember when he played in the national team he was the king of swedish hockey. Sweden Rules<3

  • He won everything you can win, then he got injured and quit.

  • Watching this now afterwards.....apart from giving you teary eyes......you realize how incredibly STONG this guy must have been......

  • I haven't been able to watch hockey since his departure. No one, but forsberg, has had the complete package. Goalies had nightmares about his double clutch shots. He had moves on ice like Jordan had on the hardwood.

  • 44 finnish people dislike this..

  • It's as if he has the puck on a string attached to his stick. Incredible.

  • Hard as a rock

  • Peter Forsberg

  • Joe Sakic on Peter Forsberg: I got to start with Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux, all these guys. But there´s no one that I could compare him to. If you wanted to play physical, he could beat you up physically. He would beat somebody up, bang them around and then take the puck and make the nicest pass ever. No one else had that...

  • Comment removed

  • @bwenzin Wtf? That´the very reason I mentioned it...why would someone make that up? weirdo

  • Every story has an end....

  • One of a kind, Forever King Of Ice Hockey.

  • One of a kind, Forever King Of Ice Hockey.

  • One of the truly great players of the modern game along with Lemieux and Gretzky.

  • Forsberg was overpowered, They tamed him with injuries

  • He was as of Crosby and Ovechkin got a child....

  • @poffen10

    hmm, makes more sense that foppa is their daddy

  • @poffen10 More like their dad .....

  • You should be ashamed of even comparing Peter Forsberg and Pavel Datsyuk. Number 13 is a phenomonal talent no doubt, but he isnt on the same planet as this man.

  • @zabadababingbong have you ever seen datsyuk playing... i mean that datsyuk is the best overall player. maybe if you watch the detroits play off run last year he was fuckin amazing... i think thats pretty even comparison.

  • forsberg was the passing wizard first of all, was a magician with the puck. him and sakic were gods together and made the avalanche what it was back then (with patrick roy of course) forserg was amazing but was plagued with a foot injury which is probably the worst injury for a hockey player and a hockey player is never the same after a long injury. always had alot more points than games played every season. this man if not for injuries was one of the best hockey players. haters gunna hate.

  • Iv'e goddamn took a ride on his jetski >.>

  • there will never be a harder hitting, dirty dangling, top cheese sniper ever again.

  • @CheeseMacro Gabriel Landeskog is looking like a young Peter Forsberg. He plays with a similar style, around the same size with speed and strength. Matt Duchene and Gabriel Landeskog will be great for the Avalanche.

  • More skilled than Ovechkin.

    Tougher and harder than Crosby.

    He was a bigger and harder hitting Datsyuk.

    The best 2 way player I've watched. He would be my top pick.

  • @jimmyamanita nah. more skilled than Crosby. toger than Ove

  • Форсберг -просто потрясающий хоккеист. Можно было смотреть только за ним одним когда он играл за Колорадо.

  • 43 Red Wings Fan's IC.

  • nik backstrom reminds me a little of forsberg because of his smooth skating and stick handling. backstrom can also hit but he chooses not to as much. if landeskog and backstrom combined, you would get something similar to forsberg

  • shortside master

  • Why Forsberg quit so early? He isn't even 40 yet. He should go to Detroit to play with other Swedes, or the "old man line" in Ducks.

  • @EliasJordan3 injurys. he would prob be a gretzky or lemuiex points wise if he wasent abscent from the game so much.

  • @aggbala don't be ridiculous. gretzky played +1400 games and got +2800 points and mario played about 200 more games than forsberg and got like 900 more points. its not like his legacy was badly tainted by that, he's still considered as one of the all time greats. sometimes i feel like he's a little overrated, but that's probably just cause it annoys me how everybody seems to overlook finnish players.

  • @EliasJordan3 forsberg is swedish -_-.... forsbergs peak was outstanding. just look how he can outsmart defensmen and goalies. all those who says he is overrated are those who didnt follow him in his prime 96-2004. when he dicided to come back, he was so torn by injuries. he is a true fighter to really try out so many times.ofc he did some amazing stuff from time to time in philly. but after 2004 he was never the forsberg colorado dicided to retire his jersy with. at least he tried.he was a hero

  • @aggbala Yea i know Forberg is Swedish, and it annoys me how some people rank him in the top 20 players of all time, and Teemu Selänne is nowhere to be found. I don't think Forsberg is overrated, but Teemu is so underrated, I think they are about equal players. It gets to me a little bit cause as you may know Finland and Sweden are rivals in hockey.

  • @EliasJordan3 teemu is maybe europes most succsesfull player, along with jagr. tho he lack the great individual skills of forsberg and the size of jaromir jagr. he is a brilliant goal scorer. he is faster then both jagr and forsberg. a typical powerforward with a great wrist shot and slapshot. forsberg and selenne are 2 types of players. forsberg is a playmaker. selenne a goalscorer. also, teemu hasent retired yet. when we look back on him we will see a guy who smashed records.

  • @aggbala: I hope you didn't say Selanne is a "typical power-forward." A power-forward is the Iginla, Bertuzzi, Shanahan, Morrow, Guerin-type player who is very physical, snipes goals as well as crashes the net to pot the garbage. Selanna is a prototypical sniper.

  • @EliasJordan3 It is quite stupid though to compare players from different generations of icehockey Gretzky and Mario were the end of an era and Forsberg was the beginning of a new era with faster and better overall skaters. No doubt Gretzky and Mario were great but they wouldn't score an average of 2 points per game in todays icehockey.

  • @Tjicketjena That's true. But Mario did score like 160 points in '96. Forsberg is really good, but Mario and Gretzky are probably 2 best players ever, at least in the NHL.

  • @EliasJordan3: Neither Mario nor Gretzky were even half as physical or defensively responsible as Forsberg was, but were great players in their own right. Forsberg was truly the most complete player of his generation.

  • Not to mention his mental abilities. Otherwise like Gretsky Forsberg was in his the best in important matches and did the real highlights like in 2003 WC against Finland...and always played very physical game.

  • one of the best highlight videos I've ever seen

  • As a Finn I hate to admit it but he was made of pure awesomeness.

  • Hey man awesome video!! What an amazing combination of skill and toughness. I sure wish my favourite players (Fedorov and Bure) were as good as him in their prime. He could do everything...great at holding onto the puck, amazing playmaker, great hands, great hitter, great backchecker, phenominal touch around the net, he could takeover a game by himself.

  • He just make it look so easy!

  • dom1nation

  • Favorite player ever

  • 1:03 filmed with a sandwich -.-

  • I think forsberg is very very close to the best hockey player ever. In the top 5 for skill. Forsberg, Gretzky, Orr, Brett Hull, Lemieux, Datsyuk, Ovi, maybe Crosby

  • 6-1 BIIIITTCCHHEEES! .. FINLAND #1

  • @ooubi wanna live in the past? 5-1 to 5-6 2003, Olympic gold 2006. have a great day in finland sir =)

  • @ooubi Please come again when you finish morons have SOMETHING to even compare with Forsberg and Swedens all gold medals.

  • the best part of this video is easily 2:02

  • Song?

  • You ain't got this in Canada: /watch?v=sOkqeA0RxY8

  • This song is greatest ever!

  • THE GREATEST OF THEM ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • he does fall alot though...

  • MY BUDDY DAN MADE THIS VID!!!!!!!

  • freakin beast

  • Greatest of alltime!

  • watching this video is like playing MINECRAFT!...

  • wow, this video is so under viewed!

  • Hall Of Famer!

  • A beast. Strong like a horse and fast as a cheetah. I can't wait for his induction in the hall of fame ! 

  • Let's be honest, this should be the video they play at Forsberg's Retirement ceremony. Nothing else.

  • He might not have created evry move but he perfected all of them

  • what's the song called?

  • crosby malkin and and somebody that can hit rolled into one is what this looks like

  • People dont understand how great this man was on the ice... No hockey player today can be compared with Peter Forsberg.

    He had everything!

  • @ochedqvist94 sorry im new at this, why ''He had everything''? He stopped playing or what?

  • @DaDrummerful

    He got too many injuries, especially on his ankle, so he retired a while ago.

  • @ochedqvist94 What about Pavel Datsyuk? He can handle the stick, shoot, pass, play d, hit and take hits. I think they're very similar.

  • @EliasJordan3

    i think you are right. i like both of them.

  • @EliasJordan3 not even close

  • i play like forsberg because i donmanite every time im on the ice

  • @PunkR0ck1nTheNight ...and also when it comes to girls :D

  • Comment removed

  • Peter Forsberg = Chuck Norris of Ice Hockey

  • I watch this video every day, I can't get enough of his bodychecks :D

  • 6-1

  • Peter the Great.! You ve been ours. Yours fans. Greetings from polish hockey fan to best player ever. Alot of us missing you. All the best!

  • wish foppa never had problems with injuries

  • great song, tooshay

  • Grattis på födelsedagen Foppa// Happy birthday Foppa!

  • That settles it. Foppa was a ninja in the past life.

  • here you all see, sweden is the best hockey country ever!!!!!!!

  • one of the greatest players ever.

  • I say only WOW ..hehe 

  • Peter Forsberg makes me proud to be Swedish :)

  • @xrlmusic mig med!

  • THUMBS UP IF YU THINK FORSBERG IS THE BEST PLAYER THROUGH ALL TIMES!!! and also check my channel. im gonna put out forsberg highlights from his career. TY!

  • i like Forsberg but alot and i mean ALOT of those shots were elbow up,towards head,like shit now adays he'd be suspended ! end of story

  • No way forsberg is better than datsyuk, datsyuk is a crazy good playmaker, top 3 best hand to ever play the game, and he is top 3 in the league defensively as a forward. he is the best all around player in the league right now and i think hes better than forsberg, not as dominant and physical but helps his team to win more and is better at the game.

  • @DatHowYzer forsberg kills dat man lol.... dats is good but he does not produce points like forsberg did... and he cant hit like forsberg.... know your stuff before you post retarded shit.

  • @cyborgdata forsberg played in a different league with a better supporting cast on his wings, if dats had a good goalscorer on his line and shot more hed put up numbers, he did with hossa. plus hes crazy good defensively and you cant say he doesnt have more skill. hitting isnt everything, when datsyuk wants to hit he can but he shuts people down as good as forsberg did and thats the point of defense. come on hes got a bunch of selkes, solid point production, and the best hands in the league.

  • @DatHowYzer dude, forsbergs points per game production in the reg season and playoffs says it all. Dats does not preform as well as forsberg did, it shows in his numbers lol. I like dats but dont be silly dude, forsberg was a way better player. Plain and simple.

  • @cyborgdata points arent everything, as a gm if i could choose either two to lead my team at the same time in their careers id pick dats, he is just valuable in every possible way. forsberg played in a different league than dats, if he played now his numbers would be in the same range and i dont think hed be as much of a defensive presence either. datsyuk is a crazy good two way player, if people gave defense credit like they do in other sports my argument wouldnt seem so far-fetched.

  • "The Colorado Avalanche Hockey Club announced today that the organization will officially retire number 21 in honor of former Avalanche forward Peter Forsberg." Fck yeah! He deserves it so much.

  • @Epiclala Can't wait for Oct. 8th... I'll be there. GO AVS GO.

  • The best icehockeyplayer ever seen

  • DON'T FUCK WITH THE KING

  • I've never seen any1 else being so solid like Forsberg when he tackle his opponent. Both skates on the ice nearly every time, even while possessing the puck.

  • Comment removed

  • Forsberg 4 prime minister in sweden 2014!

  • todays game is no touch when he played it was full blown tackle and hold all game and trap

  • i love forsberg. i just wish he played more than 2 games for the avs this season. would have made the games easier to watch hahah

  • FORSBERG over DATSYUK if both athletes are healthy. DATSYUK over FORSBERG if you consider forsberg was injured most of the time and datsyuk is the go-to guy in Detroit.

  • I found it surprising that some of Peter's numbers are very similar to that of Datsyuk's. They play a pretty similar game, aside from the fact that Peter was more physical.

  • @ebtricks Forsberg is still a much better player than Datsyuk, although I will admit Datsyuk has some sick hands

  • @77HeIix It's tough for me to call. I think Peter had more grit to his game while Datsyuk is a bit more creative with the puck.

  • @ebtricks Yeah, won't argue that Datsyuk has some of the sickest moves I've seen.

  • Whats the name of the song?

  • @ostattack Clubbed to Death - Rob Dougan; it's from the matrix

  • I Love it ..:!Peter ..

  • what a line up Avalanche had back then! Forsberg, Sakic and Hejduk! miss those times :(

  • what a line up Avalanche had back then! Forsberg, Sakic and Hejduk! miss those times :(

  • Better yet. Forsberg, Sakic, Hejduk, Tanguay, Foote, Blake, Drury, Kariya, Selanne one year.

  • @avschase I loved our golden years as much as the next avs fan but I as much I loved that roster, Kariya and Selanne were a HUGE bust

  • Hmm.. Correct me if i'm wrong but didnt a swedish guy get most points last season in NHL... and i think it was a swedish guy this season aswell...

    Was that just luck?

    Btw, everybody knows that Peter was the best player in the world when he was healthy... No one can say no to that

  • 3:32 wow

  • Herticek: you mean "long live Forsberg from Sweden"

  • wow.. finland got owned at 2:25 :(( 2 bad we owned sweden 6-1 ;)

  • 2:18 no goal lol?

  • He was op

  • This is real hockey!

  • @Liztivien LOL And to think your still missing MANY........ what a stupid comment hejpare123!

  • @Liztivien He's just being a troll. If you want to see a long list of our best players just google it. Mats Sundin, Niklas Lidström and Burge Salming are some of our best. I can't find a Canadian player that is better than Peter Forsberg though.

  • @tapp3r LOL TRY Mario Lemieux. Ya know, the greatest player of all time. While you take a look at him you might want to look up a real defense man by the name of Bobby Orr.

  • @222tipz lemieux the greatest player of all time? come on now

  • @banklikefrankwhite1 If someone where to make a video of Forsberg's highlights verses Lemieux's, it would be an onslaught. Goodnight.
