NASHVILLE -- The Nashville Predators will get two days off for the first time in the 2016 Stanley Cup Playoffs before Game 7 of the Western Conference Second Round against the San Jose Sharks at SAP Center on Thursday (9 p.m. ET; NBCSN, SN, TVA Sports).
The Predators have played every second day since their playoff run began on April 15 against the Anaheim Ducks in the first round. They have traveled more than 15,000 miles during the playoffs and each of their series will have gone to a Game 7.
Two days off between games is a welcome sight for the Predators.
