The Nashville Predators have signed their top goal scorer, Swedish forward Patric Hornqvist, to a three-year, $9.25 million contract.

Hornqvist, 23, is Nashville’s first draft pick to score 30 goals, and he led the team with his 30 goals last season. That also marked the fourth highest total in team history.

Hornqvist, from Sollentuna, Sweden, tied the team record and tied for second in the NHL with eight game-winning goals. He led the Predators, who announced the deal on Tuesday, with 10 power-play goals and finished tied for the team lead with 51 points off a team-record 275 shots in the season.

Hornqvist was a seventh-round NHL draft pick in 2005.
