The Nashville Predators beat the Minnesota Wild 6-2 on Saturday night in a game that featured three fights in the first 6:24.

The Wild went 3-for-3 on fights in the opening six minutes of their matchup, taking out some frustration on Nashville. However, Minnesota may have burned off all of its energy exacting revenge. With the fighting out of the way, the Predators — third from last in the Western Conference — still had a game they could win.

Matt Boldy's power-play goal 2 minutes, 28 seconds into the third period cut it back down to a two-goal game, but Forsberg scored his second of the night unassisted 16 minutes, 20 seconds into the frame, and Brady Skjei scored an empty-netter with 1 minute, 49 seconds remaining to put the finishing touches on a Predators victory.

Zach L'Heureux was suspended 3 games for a slew-foot on Minnesota Wild's Jared Spurgeon. The Predators winger answered for the hit on Saturday.

Yakov Trenin fought L'Heureux while Marcus Foligno fought Luke Schenn two minutes into the game. Ryan Hartman joined in on the action, fighting Mark Jankowski a few minutes later. It was a busy penalty box at Bridgestone Arena Saturday night.

The Minnesota Wild had a big game circled against the Nashville Predators and revenge for Jared Spurgeon's injury was on their mind.

Even though he is not deemed a "repeat offender" by the NHL, at only 21 years old, L'Heureux has been suspended 11 times at lower levels.
