Vancouver Canucks vs. Nashville Predators: Welcome back Vernon!
While Tuesday night may be the first time that Vernon Fiddler puts on a golden sweater, it certainly will not be the first time that a saber-toothed tiger will don the front of a sweater with his name on the back.
For the first time since 2009, Fiddler will take the ice as a Nashville Predator. On the other end of the rink, the floundering Vancouver Canucks will be visiting as part of a long road trip out east. Beginning in Nashville, the Canucks will then play in Columbus before making stops in the likes of Pittsburgh and St. Louis. All in all, it’s a six-game road trip for them. Yikes. And we always complain about our annual CMA road trip.
