Impact Forsberg extended his point streak to five games (three goals, four assists) with a pair of first-period points. The 30-year-old and Steven Stamkos set up each other's goals in Tuesday's contest. Forsberg is up to 12 tallies, 25 helpers, 143 shots on net, 81 hits and a minus-13 rating through 43 outings. He endured a brutal goal drought for over a month, but Forsberg looks to be back to his usual productive ways now, so fantasy managers need not fear about his production.

On a roll to start 2025 Forsberg potted Nashville's lone goal in Saturday's 4-1 loss to Washington.

Impact Forsberg scored his fifth power-play goal of the season to tie the game at 1-1 in the middle frame. The star winger has found the back of the net in back-to-back games after not scoring in 18 prior contests. The Swedish native has gotten on the scoresheet in four straight games in January, generating two goals and three assists in that span. Forsberg's production has dipped in comparison to his 94-point campaign in 2023-24, but he seems to be turning the corner in the new calendar year. Through 42 games in 2024-25, Forsberg has accounted for 11 goals, 35 points, 22 PIM, 141 shots on goal, 80 hits, 27 blocked shots and a minus-14 rating.

Ends lengthy goal drought Forsberg scored a power-play goal on four shots and went minus-2 in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Jets.

Impact Forsberg's 18-game goal drought, which began Nov. 27 against the Flyers, is finally over. He got the Predators on the board late in the second period of Tuesday's contest. During the goal slump, he came up empty on 54 shots but still managed 16 assists to remain productive. The winger is now at 10 goals, 34 points (13 on the power play), 136 shots on net, 79 hits and a minus-12 rating over 41 appearances. He's had good chemistry with Steven Stamkos (undisclosed), who left Tuesday's game early, so Forsberg's production could be a bit volatile if his linemate misses time.

The star winger is at nine goals, 31 points, 129 shots on net, 78 hits and a minus-10 rating through 39 appearances.

The 30-year-old winger is still stuck in a goal drought, which reached 14 contests Friday. He's now at nine goals, 21 helpers, 10 power-play points, 122 shots on net, 74 hits and a minus-10 rating through 36 appearances. Forsberg has flashed 40-goal skill before, but he's also topped 40 assists twice in the last three years, so he can finish or make plays in accordance with what's needed of him from his linemates.

Dazzling as playmaker Forsberg had two assists, including one on the power play, in Monday's 4-2 win over the Hurricanes.

Impact Forsberg has been outstanding as a playmaker in recent weeks and has recorded 12 helpers across his last seven games, notching two or more in a single game five times in that stretch. The 30-year-old Swede hasn't scored a goal since Nov. 25, when he found the twine in a 5-2 loss to the Devils, but that won't matter much if he remains as influential as he's been as a playmaker in recent weeks. Forsberg is up to nine goals and 20 assists across 35 games this season.

Third straight multi-point game Forsberg delivered two assists in a 3-2 overtime win over the Kings on Saturday.

Impact It was Forsberg's third consecutive two-point game, and his fourth game in a row with at least a point (seven assists). He has put up 17 shots in that span, but they haven't found their way across the red line. Forsberg has gone 12 games without a goal. And like the Preds, Forsberg has been better at home than on the road. Twenty of his 26 points have come in 17 games at home, but just six have come in 17 games on the road. For now, stream Forsberg in games and weeks that weight more heavily in the comforts of home.

Three-game, five-assist streak Forsberg had two assists Thursday in a 5-4 overtime loss to Pittsburgh.

Impact The points stretched his scoring streak to three games and five assists. Forsberg has seven points, all assists, in his last five games after enduring a six-game point drought. Still, his 24 points in 33 games are a massive disappointment for managers who drafted him with the expectation of anther 90-plus point campaign. Forsberg has a lowly 7.9 shooting percentage this season, which is well below his career mark of 12.8. The points will come, but given Nashville's struggles, we can't see a path where Forsberg gets close to his excellence of 2023-24.

Dishes pair of helpers 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.

Impact 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.
