Filip Forsberg and Brady Skjei each had two goals for the Nashville Predators in a 6-4 win against the visiting Buffalo Sabres on Saturday night.

Ryan O’Reilly had four assists, Jonathan Marchessault had a goal and three assists, and Justus Annunen made 25 saves for the Predators, who snapped a six-game losing streak.

Alex Tuch had a goal and two assists, and Rasmus Dahlin and Bowen Byram each had a goal and an assist for the Sabres, whose four-game winning streak ended. Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen made 17 saves.

Tommy Novak gave Nashville a 1-0 lead at 6:57 of the first period, knocking down Tuch’s pass and taking it down the right side before wiring it past Luukkonen from the circle.

Skjei made it 2-0 at 9:26 when he was uncovered in front to redirect an O’Reilly feed stick side.

Byram cut the deficit in half at 15:21. Jason Zucker carried the puck up the left side before sending a cross-ice pass to Byram for a one-timer from the right circle.

Dahlin was alone in the left circle to snap a 24-game goal drought and tie it 2-2 at 18:25.

The goal was the 73rd of his NHL career, tying him with Mike Ramsey for second most by a defenseman in Buffalo history.

Forsberg put Nashville ahead 3-2 on the power play at 14:31 of the second period, sweeping a rebound on the doorstep.

Skjei pushed it to 4-2 at 15:13, burying a feed from O’Reilly from the slot.

Tuch narrowed it to 4-3 at 17:43 with a wrist shot from the left circle off the far post and in.

Forsberg beat Luukkonen over his left shoulder from the left circle to extend it to 5-3 at 6:58 of the third period.

Dylan Cozens pulled the Sabres to within one on the power play at 12:30 when he wristed a shot inside the near top corner from the left circle.

Benson appeared to tie it 32 seconds later, but the Predators challenged for offside and the goal was overturned after video review.

Marchessault scored an empty-net goal at 19:24.
