Filip Forsberg
Forsberg is someone who has been talked about extensively by the Predlines crew, and I also wrote an article months ago covering what I thought an extension would look like for him. My opinions remain largely the same as they were then, so I will not beat a dead horse here.

In short, Forsberg is the best forward on the Predators and has managed to stay consistent throughout his career. He does have a bit of an injury history, but it has never been enough to take him out of the lineup when it matters, let alone for it to be a reason for the team to not keep him.
Yes, the Predators are going in a rebuilding direction, and Forsberg is not exactly young, but he is a very talented player and someone who can be valuable for the organization for many years to come.
Something I previously mentioned in my article back in March was the chemistry he was building with Eeli Tolvanen, which shows how meaningful he can be for the future.
I expect Forsberg to be signed to a long-term extension in the next few months.
