• Predators' Filip Forsberg: Dishes pair of helpers

  6D ago • By RotoWire

  Forsberg logged two assists, three shots on goal, three hits, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Flames. Forsberg helped out on both of Jonathan Marchessault's goals in the game. This effort snapped a six-game slump for Forsberg, his longest drought of the campaign. Prior to that dry spell, the 30-year-old winger had been one of Nashville's few consistent forwards. He's now at 19 points, 101 shots on net, 69 hits and a minus-10 rating over 29 appearances. Forsberg's offense appears to be suffering without Ryan O'Reilly (lower body), who is week-to-week, though the drop-off shouldn't be that severe since Steven Stamkos has filled in as the top-line center.

• Predators' Filip Forsberg: Nets goal in loss

  21D ago • By RotoWire

  Forsberg scored a goal on three shots in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Devils. Forsberg ended a season-worst six-game goal drought with his first-period tally. He had three assists in that span. The 30-year-old has been one of the Predators' best forwards this season, but that is somewhat hollow praise given the team's poor performance. He has nine goals, eight assists, 78 shots on net, 51 hits, 14 PIM and a minus-5 rating through 22 appearances, a scoring pace well off the mark from his 48-goal, 94-point performance in 82 regular-season outings last year.

Forsberg has eight goals, seven assists, 68 shots on net, 48 hits, 14 PIM and a minus-3 rating through 19 appearances.

• Predators' Filip Forsberg: Fills empty cage

  11/03/2024 • By RotoWire

  Forsberg scored an empty-net goal on five shots and added two PIM in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Avalanche. Forsberg has put up four goals over his last five games, one of which was on the power play. The 30-year-old winger gave the Predators some breathing room, scoring just 1:03 after Nathan MacKinnon pulled the Avalanche within a goal. Forsberg is up to six tallies, 10 points, 51 shots, 28 hits, 10 PIM and a minus-3 rating over 11 contests. Nashville's offense has gotten off to an uneven start, but Forsberg is as consistent as ever in his top-line role.
