Predators' Filip Forsberg: Hat trick leads to franchise record
Forsberg earned his 10th career NHL hat trick in Friday's 5-1 win over the Blackhawks. Two of the goals took place on the power play, and he set a franchise record for most goals in a season with 46.

The Swede has pelted goaltenders with 338 shots, which has him ranked fifth in the NHL in that key offensive metric. Forsberg also has 10 game-winning goals and 12 goals on the power play.
