So far, the Canucks have enjoyed playing in Nashville as they took games three and four against the Predators.
Earlier today, head coach Rick Tocchet was named a finalist for the Jack Adams Award as "the NHL coach adjudged to have contributed the most to his team's success."

Tocchet joins Norris Trophy finalist Quinn Hughes and Vezina Trophy finalist Thatcher Demko as Canucks who are up for regular season awards.
Puck drop is at 4 pm and a win would pit the Canucks against the Oilers in the second round.
There was only one game played on Thursday and it was the Toronto Maple Leafs versus the Boston Bruins.
The Bruins were looking to clinch their series and not have a repeat of last season when they blew a 3-1 series lead against the Florida Panthers.
The Maple Leafs opened the scoring in the second period, and a third-period goal proved enough as they won 2-1 and forced a game seven for this weekend.
