QuoteForsberg heading to Turin
By ED MORAN
Daily News Sports Writer

Turin, Italy - Despite an MRI that revealed Peter Forsberg's groin has not completely healed, the Flyers center is leaving for Turin and the Olympics this evening, the Swedish superstar told Daily News today.

"I'm going to fly over and see how it goes," Forsberg said this afternoon. "I'm still not 100 percent, but I'm going to rest when I get there and see how it goes. If isn't 100 percent, I'm not going to play."

Forsberg has been sidelined for the past 2 weeks with the injury. He had previously said if the groin was not totally healed that he would not go to Turin. He underwent an MRI on Sunday night and it was read this morning by the Flyers' doctors.

The men's hockey competition opens Wednesday, although Forsberg could sit out the early games and be available later in the tournament.

"Peter knows what the results of the MRI were and what the risks involved are," Flyers general manager Bob Clarke said.

"We wish him real good luck, except against the Canadians," quipped Clarke, a former Team Canada general manager.

Forsberg informed the Flyers of his decision in a meeting with Clarke shortly after 1 p.m.

"I think it's his decision to make," Clarke said before the meeting. "Nobody else can make it for him. It's up to him."

Whatever.  It sounds like he wants to support his team/country and pretend he's considering suiting up, but in the end, he probably won't.  And if he does, and he re-injures himself, then we can just kill him.

The Flyers wont win the cup anyway, let him play. I'd say the same thing to any member of one of our loser franchises.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

Yet sadly, they're still our best chance. Ouch.

didnt forsberg threaten to retire not too many year ago because of some dispute with colorado? or was that someone else?

forsberg has his money, and his name on the cup...national pride is big with europeans, especially in the hockey circuits. it is possible that his heart just isnt in to the nhl.

I'm 99% sure he threatened to retire over injuries.

QuoteForsberg says he will play for Sweden in Olympics
By Tim Panaccio
INQUIRER STAFF WRITER

TURIN, Italy - Flyers center Peter Forsberg, who has been rehabilitating his injured groin since arriving here earlier in the week, will play on Saturday when Team Sweden meets Latvia in the Olympic round-robin round.

After 55 minutes practicing on a line with Samuel Pahlsson and P.J. Axelsson, Forsberg informed the media in Swedish that we would play.

Forsberg has been rehabilitating a left groin strain since Jan. 25 and has not had a full practice with the Flyers since.

Swedish team physician Lennart Houelius has been working with Forsberg to treat the groin using massage and electro-therapy, but on Thursday gave Forsberg no better than a "50-50" chance.

The Swedes are in need of some offense after losing to the Russians, 5-0, on Thursday.
