As the capital and largest city in the state of Tennessee, Nashville naturally has an attraction to both tourists and natives. It’s a vibrant city that has long been the cultural center of the state, particularly when it comes to music and entertainment. The NHL saw the potential of the city as a strong supporter of hockey so the league granted an expansion franchise to Nashville beginning with the 1998-99 season. It’s been a match made in heaven since then. While the club didn’t make the playoffs in its first five seasons, the tides turned in 2004 with the Predators first playoff appearance. In 2017, they made an inspirational run to the Stanley Cup Finals where they ultimately lost to Sidney Crosby and the Pittsburgh Penguins. The city has fully embraced the team, and Finnish right wing Eeli Tolvanen is a huge part of the future. Tolvanen has autographed this limited edition (25) “Nashville Skyline” 16x20 designed image in silver paint pen. His signature is deemed authentic by virtue of Upper Deck Authenticated’s Five-Step Process.
