Regressing to the mean since 2015, it's the Hockey PEDEOCast with your host, Dmitri Filippovich.

Welcome to the Hockey PEDEOCast. My name is Dimitri Filippovich and join me. He's my good buddy, Gerald Belfry. Daryl. What's going on, man?

Excited to get started again with another really exciting player to talk about.

I am very fired up. I'm always excited when we have you on here every week. It's always a treat to talk shop and break down players with you.

But this one in particular today, our muse, is Philip Forsberg.

And anyone that's followed me on Twitter for any amount of time now probably knows that this is one of my favorite players in the game.

And so I'm really excited to do this one here with you.

A, the Predators and Forsberg himself are playing really well right now.

So I think the timing is right.

B, I think this is probably a player that doesn't get enough appreciation for just how unique he is in so many ways,

especially in today's game where there's so much scale and there's so much, you know, star power on display every single night.

But a lot of it is very similar stylistically when you watch it, whereas he is such a throwback in so many ways.

So we're going to get into all of that.

And so I just think it's the perfect combination of my favorite player, one that's playing well,

and one that I think the listeners are going to really, hopefully, if they're not already

well versus Philip Borsberg, they're going to become, you know, they're going to go back,

watch some tape on him, watch some of his highlights, and really gain an extra appreciation

for him. So let's dive right into it. What stands out for you when you watch Forsberg play and sort of what separates him from a lot of the other players in the league?

Well, like I think you hit the nail on the head.

I think he does fly under the radar.

I mean, he's only had one year where he's been over a point of game.

And that, I think, does, it does diminish in a lot of people's radar.
