Forsberg gets hat trick, Preds beat Leafs 3-2

TORONTO -- Filip Forsberg got his regular-season first hat trick, and the Nashville Predators kept up their dominance against Canadian teams.

Forsberg became the youngest player in franchise history to get a hat trick, helping the Nashville Predators beat the Toronto Maple Leafs 3-2 on Tuesday night.

The 21-year-old Forsberg is also the fifth Predator to post a natural hat trick, Elias Sports told the NHL. His outburst helped Nashville improve to 11-1-3 in its last 15 games against Canadian teams, and the Predators also got points on the road for the ninth straight game -- the franchise's longest such streak.
