Ah. Sweet, sweet reversion.

After his cursed opening two months of the season, in which he scored twice with 63 shots and counted three goals in his first 30 games, Filip Forsberg is rather predictably now scoring in bunches.

The Nashville Predators star scored in a third straight game - and recorded his fifth goal in six contests - in Friday's 4-0 triumph over the St. Louis Blues, bumping his season total to seven.

He's still only on pace to achieve about half the production of his 33-goal campaign from a season ago - but still, he's firing at about half the total success rate he had with 247 shots last season.

Though it's unlikely that Forsberg will be able to maintain linear totals, there's no reason to believe he won't be one of the more productive scorers in the NHL down the stretch.
