Forsberg back in Colorado

Just days after his agent said he probably wouldn't be returning, ESPN is reporting that Peter Forsberg has signed with the Colorado Avalanche.

"We're proud to announce to our fans that Peter Forsberg has decided to come back and play with our franchise where he's enjoyed so much success early in his career," Avalanche general manager Francois Giguere said in a statement. "His addition should complement our roster and will bring our team to an even higher competitive level."

It seems like a good idea, as the Avs are low on scoring and have their big names either out or just returning from injury. Forsberg is a point per game guy that could really boost the scoring for Colorado.
