NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) Filip Forsberg scored twice and added an assist to lead the Nashville Predators to a come-from-behind 5-2 victory over the Arizona Coyotes on Tuesday night.

Calle Jarnkrok, Mike Ribeiro, and James Neal also scored for Nashville, who stopped a two-game losing streak. Shea Weber had three assists.

Oliver Ekman-Larsson and Kyle Chipchura had the goals for Arizona, who saw their three-game winning streak end.

Nashville lost center Mike Fisher at 7:56 of the second period to a lower-body injury. In the Arizona zone, Martin Hanzal checked Fisher into the left boards. Fisher left the ice without putting any weight on his right leg.

Nashville took a 3-2 lead in the third on Forsberg's wrist shot.

He scored his second at 17:01 and Neal added an empty-net goal late.
