Peter The Great To Aid Flu-Ridden Flyers?

020708forsberg.jpg
Although the Flyers were coming off a 22-60 season, the worst in their history, a couple people thought they might be able to sneak into the playoffs this year if they caught a few good bounces. Instead, the Flyers are first in the division and only three points back of first-place Ottawa.

Now comes the news the team will get Peter "Foppa" Forsberg back if he feels he's healthy enough to return. Yes, the dreamy blue-eyed Swede could be returning to break the hearts of all the women in South Jersey and Northeast Philly.

Forsberg (at right, apparently getting ready to chase after some birds) played with the Flyers for 2 1/2 years before the club shipped him off to Nashville. The Flyers could definitely use him right now, as they all have the flu right now.

"The Flyers could definitely use him right now, as they all have the flu right now."

That sentence was written by Karen Rogers, wasn't it?
