Filip Forsberg scores twice as Preds top Kraken
Predators' Filip Forsberg: Tallies twice Thursday
Forsberg continues to be the star of the Predators' offense, and while he's had some shaky stretches this season, fantasy managers can value him for his offense as well as his physical play.
The Predators are coming off a 6-3 win over the Boston Bruins, fueled by three-point performances by Ryan O'Reilly and Steven Stamkos. Nashville (22-32-7, 51 points) is in seventh place in the Central Division, five points ahead of the Chicago Blackhawks.
On Friday afternoon, the Preds dealt forward Mark Jankowski to the Carolina Hurricanes in exchange for a fifth-round draft pick (2026) as the NHL Trade Deadline came and went. Jankowski joined forwards Gustav Nyquist and Tommy Novak, as well as defenseman Luke Schenn, as the players Nashville dealt away in recent days.
Nashville (20-30-7, 47 points) is in seventh place in the Central Division, six points ahead of the Chicago Blackhawks. With 25 games to play, and the team 18 points out of the final wild card sport, general manager Barry Trotz told the Tennessean he will begin selling off assets in order to build for the future.
