Nashville Predators forward Filip Forsberg is week-to-week with an upper-body injury, the team announced Wednesday.

Brad Richardson, Matt Duchene, Ryan Ellis, Mark Borowiecki and Luca Sbisa, who have all missed multiple weeks with injuries, are also still considered week-to-week.

Forsberg has missed the past three games with his injury. He leads the team with 29 points and is tied for the team-lead with 11 goals in 34 games.

The Predators have won six games in a row and eight of their last nine to climb back into a playoff spot in the Central Division.
