When his feet and ankles permitted, Peter Forsberg was one of the absolute best of his generation at making other NHLers look foolish with his skill on both sides of the puck. Now, he’s simply making others look foolish with his comedy chops.

Forsberg masked those piercing eyes and unmistakable flow with contacts and a wig to play a prank on Huddinge Hockey Veterans, a Swedish hockey club. Taking the ice as “Kent” from the northern parts of Sweden, the former Hart Memorial Trophy winner patrolled the ice with a skill set more akin to Bill Mikkelson than Peter Forsberg.
