A major reason the Nashville Predators are a top-tier team is due to their top line, the JoFA line. Filip Forsberg leads that charge along with Ryan Johansen and Viktor Arvidsson. All three had solid seasons as the Predators won the Presidents’ Trophy, but Forsberg finds himself on another level. His game became more complete and consistent.
There’s never any doubt that Forsberg is a pure goal-scorer. We’ve known that from the beginning. However, last season showed me he can make waves in other areas of the game as well. His 2017-18 numbers are impressive, especially considering he only played in 67 games.
