Winning 3rd game in Nashville will be tough, but Vancouver has 2 shots at getting this right
The Vancouver Canucks have a formidable task at hand heading into Nashville for game six of their first-round playoff series on Friday.
“We’ve been a pretty good road team all year, so I think we are comfortable playing outside our building. Sometimes we actually play better on the road,” said Vancouver head coach Rick Tocchet. “This is a tough building. We know that there were a couple of games there that maybe we didn’t deserve - just like game five we thought we deserved. It’s one of those series that it really doesn’t matter , it’s who wins the game.
You have to match the intensity of your opponent, yet at the same time, you can’t get out of your own game according to Tocchet. Desperation is one thing that Nashville head coach Andrew Brunette liked about his team after game five in Vancouver.
