Ishkur did a good job with his article, but there are too many double standards floating around here. First, how did you prove forsberg is a flopper?!?!?! How can anyone have a problem with me calling Jagr a pussy when Ishkur is calling Forsberg a flopper? You can't prove EITHER of these. You can call Forsberg a diver all you want, but I'll keep responding with "Jagr is a pussy."


Jagr has more heart?! Forsberg has played through pain plenty of times and shouldnt have even come back for the playoffs a few years ago but he did, and he still scored something like 39 points and didnt miss a beat. Bullshit, if he did he would actually not shy away from throwing his body around, and Forsberg doesnt. Hits, blocked shots, steals, dump-ins, etc you are right that Forsberg isnt in contention for tops in the league, but he is better than Jagr in almost EVERY one of those. And he scores at the same rate as Jagr. You can't fault Forsberg for the injuries he's faced, it's not like he sits out with a head cold, the guy has gone through some serious crap, yet he still produces at a higher level than Jagr offensively and is a MUCH better defensive player. Jagr is a better goal scorer, fine, but that doesnt mean he's a better offensive weapon. And how easy is it to just say "the guy with the best stats wins"... that has to be the worst part of pcp ever.

And why do you act like Jagr plays with a bunch of freaking stiffs? Those NY teams were VERY talented, just because they didnt live up to it means he scored a lot of goals on awful teams.


All in all though, Iskur you did do a good job with Jagr.
