Eklund Gives Me Something To Talk About

Updating us on the status of Forsberg:

"Forsberg: "Really feeling well and looking full of life," I was told this morning in an email from Sweden. And I am also hearing that Philly is 80% his destination. Foppa felt like Philly treated him very well, there is unfinished buisiness, and he also made some strong relationships in the area. It should also be noted that Scott Hartnell and Forsberg were very close during his time in Nashville."

This is something I've assumed would happen all along. If he's feeling good, he's going to come back to Philadelphia to redeem himself for his two oft-injured seasons here. He likes the team, he likes the players, it just makes a lot of sense.
