Forsberg's amazing Season

[rookjunkie]

hey guys and girls,

I bet you didn't know that Forsberg is only the 2nd player in NHL history to score over 200 pts in a season.

According to SI, he had a stat line in 2002-03 of

2002-03 Colorado Avalanche 150GP 58G 154A 212P 104 +/-

Check it out!

I was browsing and saw a story on Forsberg so I went to look at his stats and was surprised to see he is only 9 points away from 1,000. I am kind of a novice stats geek so I was like no way, I knew he was somewhat close but not that close. So I scrolled up and voila!

(I hope SI doesn't fix this before others read it. I would look like quite a FOOL!)

Ah, that was the season he coughed up a lung--literally into his glove--tucked it under his arm and scored one handed. Memories.

What is even more amazing...is that Gretzky actually did do it in 80 games...and it took Forsberg 150 games in SI land

I had Forsberg on my fantasy team that year. Didn't need anyone else.
