Yes, with a backup to the backup goalie.  Did you see all the empty seats in the stadium?

Blackhawks won, Wild won, Dallas lost, so we both picked up two points on Dallas.

In the 70s or 80s there was a star forward playing for Colorado named Peter Forsberg, wonder if there is any relation?  There is another player in the league named Forsberg but I forgot who he plays for.

Is Forsberg the backup for Crawford? I see he has played twice as many games as Glass. I thought it was the other way around.   Any clue when and if Crawford will return?

Could be.  I know I've seen him play, just can't remember for who.  But yes I think you are right one of those two probably.

Yes Filip Forsberg, plays for the Nashville Predators so we both were wrong.  I checked and Peter and these two Forsbergs are all from different places so I doubt there is a relationship.  I guess in Sweden the name Forsberg is pretty common, like Smith or Miller around here.
