June 12, 2003 - Bonus coverage today for TICAH. As his linemate Milan Hejduk was collecting the Rocket Richard Trophy, Peter Forsberg received his Art Ross Trophy for leading the league in points (106) and also won the Hart Trophy as the league's MVP. However, Forsberg was already making Avalanche fans nervous by revealing that he was considering playing in Sweden in the upcoming season. In the end, Forsberg decided to stay put, and two weeks later signed a 1-year deal with Colorado. Perhaps he regrets not going across the pond; Forsberg missed 43 games because of hip and groin injuries.

Who would be carrying who’s bags?

MHH: Like the Avs organization, we’ve now officially lost our minds.

I’d expect foppa to be limping slightly so I figure the kid’s help him out

I just want Drury back... I recognize the Drury->Morris->Statsny chain, and I stick with the statement.

Man, I miss him.

I don't believe in Peter Budaj.

I am sooooo loving this game...

The Red Wings look lost out there.

Suck it Hossa

No really, the hockey gods say, suck it, and suck it hard. I was going to make an entire fan post out of that, but eh, he’s crying in the locker room with Draper and Holmstrom, so I’ll just leave them be. Oh yeah, Osgood? You are not a Conn Smythe worthy player. You can suck it too.

Get rid of the loser point

08-09 Avs- can we decline the penalty?

My favorite athlete ever

I’ll die a little inside this summer when we receive the inevitable news that Foppa is done for good and Lappy is no longer a proud displayer of the Unipron.
