Forsberg stopped 23 of 24 shots in Wednesday's 2-1 overtime win over the Blues.
The Kings turned to Forsberg in the first half of a back-to-back, and he delivered a strong outing to get a critical win. This was the first time he allowed fewer than three goals in a start since Feb. 28 versus the Flames, which explains why Darcy Kuemper has seen the bulk of the work since the start of March. Forsberg improved to 12-11-5 with a 2.74 GAA and a .903 save percentage over 31 contests this season. Kuemper will be between the pipes Thursday versus the Predators in another pivotal matchup, and if he struggles, it could open the door for Forsberg to see more time over the last two weeks of the season.
