With the Avs in town and word coming down recently that Peter Forsberg is likely ready to call it a career and because you guys seem to be half asleep today, I figured I’d throw a question out to the group: who has been the better player over the course of his career – Sergei Fedorov or Peter Forsberg? Is your answer different if the question is who would you have rather had in his prime?
