Forsberg, 24, was acquired in the trade sending Artemi Panarin to Columbus last week for Brandon Saad. He was a seventh round pick (#188) by Columbus in the 2011 NHL Draft.
Forsberg has appeared in 10 NHL games over the last three seasons for Columbus, and appears to be the Blackhawks backup to Corey Crawford for the coming future.
Hopefully he can run with this job because there isnt much there in the system
Two years. Brass must know something we do not
Disregard the handful of NHL games. Look at his AHL numbers and accolades.
Is Ray Emery still playing Europe or elsewhere?
there are rumours of the Hawks looking at Alzner?
@ GOLDENBLADZ, word is Alzner is looking for 4 million + a season, im not sure how the Hawks can add that salary to their cap
oh i agree I can’t imagine it unless someone else is moving. Don’t see it happening.
