Can Forsberg Hit 50 Goals?

[Soundgarden]

He's at 46 with two games left, the Predators are locked in a playoff spot and Forsberg does have back to back hat tricks in his career. Do you think he can become the first Predator to hit 50 goals in a season?

Can? Yes, most certainly. But I really don't think he will.

Just find it unreal that the current forsberg has now scored 16 more goals than his more famous namesake has ever scored.

Different scoring environments + Peter Forsberg only played like 2-3 full seasons. Peter was a very reliable goal scorer in the playoffs though.

Name and nationality is about all they have in common. Foppa may have been the most magical playmaker I’ve ever seen. 116 points in dead puck era while being a Selke type of player and having a pretty nasty streak to his game was wild. He was a treat to watch. Filip is a beast as well, but just in a different way. He scores every way you can think of and has some pretty filthy hands. The knock on Peter was always that if he shot more he’d end up with even more assists because he’d make the goalies have to guess more. It’s funny that they’re not related or even relevant to one another but they both ended up being two of my all time favorites to watch.

Ended with 48, very close.

Ha, I just opened this based on the question in title and clicked ‘yes’ because I took it to be “will he ever have a 50 goal season”.

Then I read the replies and saw that it was a question posed specifically about this season, while there were games remaining.
