With Peter Forsberg due to be inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame, and Borje Salming into Legends Row with the Toronto Maple Leafs. The Hockey News recently asked about Salming's first experience with Forsberg. It was not your typical tale between two friendly players. One night Salming’s AIK squad was playing Forsberg’s MoDo team. “(Forsberg) was going crazy on the ice and screaming at the refs and everything,” Salming said. “I skated up to him and I tried to calm him down. I said, ‘Peter, relax, you’re going to get a match penalty.’ And he just said to me, ‘F— off.’ “ Salming later said Forsberg had said it in Swedish, adding a pretty funny factor to the story.
