@Skrangelben aha. Thanks for the assist. I obviously didn't think about that. I'd forgotten exactly what the rule was for the two line pass.

@skinscapsbombers

No. When the pass i made Blake is in the same zone as Forsberg.

[skinscapsbombers]

That was an absolutely amazing play, but wasn't it a two line pass?

Who was responsible for making Steve Levy the announcer? He's a good analyst/sportscenter host but man he needs some work on his play by play

Legendary

@Faeiv Oh please, I've grown up watching both these players. Henrik sedin are not even close to having the pure talant Forsberg had. Forsberg could dominate games with his physicality, grit, determination and pure skill. If you really think Forsberg had quantity over quality then you know nothing about hockey.

forsberg = one of the best pure skilled players ever.

[itsthizzbaby]

shot and a score ;)

@generationtim Um, have you ever seen Henrik passes? He might not have as many assists as Forsberg but he makes passes that are unbelievable. Forsberg was amazing too but he had quantity over quality while Sedin has quality over quantity.
