Foppa to announce NHL Retirement Tonight?

Dater is speculating this in his latest blog entry.

Just learned from a reliable source that Peter Forsberg, along with his parents, are in Denver right now and that Forsberg will “make an announcement” at the Avs-Wings game tonight.

That announcement is expected to be that he will officially retire from the NHL.

 

I'll be there, will have to wear one of my Foppa jerseys now just in case.   And I need four more words.  There.

 

UPDATE: False alarm, it seems. AD took down the entry and replaced it with the following:

Sorry for the false alarm folks. No Forsberg retirement announcement here tonight. While a retirement is likely to be official at some point soon, it won’t be tonight at the Avs-Wings game.

I'm taking this off the front page for now.
