Are The Blackhawks Getting Played?
Sunday, February 17, 2008

Word out of Chicago is that the Blackhawks have made an offer to Peter Forsberg and that the Swede is reportedly interested.

Tallon said he's still waiting to hear from free agent Peter Forsberg, who's expected to decide soon whether to return to the NHL and with which team. The Hawks are believed to have made the veteran center an offer for the rest of this season and the next two, which reportedly interests Forsberg.

The Blackhawks? Really? Wasn't Forsberg interested in Stanley Cup contenders? This might be a ploy by the Forsberg camp to up the ante for any potential offer from serious contenders. On the bright side, it looks like Bill Wirtz really is dead. This would never have happened under his dictatorship.
