He had a great shot but wasn't using it much. His game was more about luring both dmen by protecting the puck then passing to the guy who ended up alone in the slot (say hello to Milan Hejduk). Forsberg's greatness doesn't come from goal scoring, it comes from watching him play: seeing all the things he could do on the ice. People saying he's overrated either never watched him play or were fans of rival teams. Watching him was a real treat.
There are only 2 players in history that made me watch full hockey games just to watch them play: Mario Lemieux and Peter Forsberg.
