Predators’ Forsberg out 4-6 weeks with reported hand injury

Nashville Predators forward Filip Forsberg has been placed on injured reserve and will miss four to six weeks with an upper-body ailment, the club announced Saturday.

NHL.com's Robby Stanley reports Forsberg suffered a hand injury.

The 24-year-old Swede came into Saturday's action leading the Predators with 14 goals and 22 points in 26 games.

Nashville is already without Viktor Arvidsson, who's been out since Nov. 10 with a broken thumb, P.K. Subban, who hasn't played since Nov. 13 due to an upper-body injury of his own, and Kyle Turris, who was placed on IR last Sunday with an undisclosed ailment.
