Geography Is Just A Big Word For The Avs

You ain't a convict, you got caught jaywalking
And you don't know the alphabet, but you still talking

Peter Forsberg is coming back to the Avs. Stop if you've seen or heard this before. While importing the Swedish star (new nickname: the Volvo?) most likely won't vault the Avs from below the playoff Mendoza Line (Mendauex Linne?) it will unleash thousands hundreds tens a few extra seat buyers at the Pepsi Center.

But the puzzling thing about his re-signing is the way the US government is making him reenter the country in order to get the proper visa. OK, great, the government isn't exactly known for eliminating red tape and overall effienciency (damn, I just lost all the readers who worked at a DMV.)

The Avs were in Phoenix when they learned of this fact. And they promptly decided to send Forsberg to Calgary and reenter the US from there. Phoenix to Mexico: about two hours. Phoenix to Calgary: halfway across the continent. And I'm sure there are tons of direct flights between those two cities, being that they share so many commonalities. Apparently maps or GPS aren't a tool utilized by the Avs to go along with their lack of defense and steady goaltending.
