Forsberg gave Nashville the lead early in the first period. Nils Höglander picked up a puck Brian Dumoulin had dropped at the blue line and fed Forsberg with a backhand pass through an opposing defenceman's legs.

Forsberg easily put the puck in the net.

And the star wasn't done there. In the second period, he struck again, with help from teammate Höglander, who passed the puck to him from the boards.

Forsberg fired a clever shot that surprised Los Angeles' Swedish goalie Anton Forsberg to make it 2–0.

Nashville has now won five straight games.
