Forsberg close to retirement?

The Courier Post on-line is reporting that Forsberg may be close to retirement.

If the Canucks were to trade.

Fair enough, the Canucks play the season has been less then stellar; they have suffered many defensive set backs mixed with being unable to score.

The good, The bad, and the ugly start for the Leafs
