Forsberg gets 10th career hat trick, sets Nashville scoring record as Predators beat Blackhawks 5
CHICAGO (AP) — Filip Forsberg got his 10th career hat trick and set a Nashville franchise record with 46 goals, and the Predators beat the Chicago Blackhawks 5-1 on Friday night.
Kiefer Sherwood and Jason Zucker also scored for the playoff-bound Predators, who handed last-place Chicago its third straight loss. Luke Evangelista had two assists, and Kevin Lankinen finished with 25 saves against his former team, and also had an assist.
“It’s obviously awesome,” Forsberg said of setting the goal-scoring mark. “The franchise has had a lot of great players and just to be mentioned as one of them is obviously something that’s cool.
“And hopefully I’m not done yet.”
Philipp Kurashev scored for Chicago, and Arvid Soderblom had 35 saves.
Nashville coach Andrew Brunette gave top goalie Juuse Saros, forward Gustav Nyquist and defenseman Ryan McDonagh the night off in a roster management move. The Predators are finishing the regular season with three games in four nights, ending Monday, before starting the playoffs next weekend.
