The Predators are going to have to learn to live without Filip Forsberg for a while.

Nashville's star winger will miss four to six weeks with an upper-body injury, the team announced Wednesday.

Forsberg was hurt Dec. 29 against the Wild and missed the Predators' last two games, ending his run of playing in 325 consecutive regular-season and playoff matchups.

The 23-year-old Swede leads the Predators with 15 goals and 34 points. He led the team with nine goals and 16 points during last season's run to the Stanley Cup Final.
