October West coast trip?

 

[Milhouse40]

San Jose twice in the first 10 games is weird.
Getting Seattle early is nice.
Other than that....I'm so happy to see a schedule with a different team every games, can't complain

 

[DavePeak]

I thought players wanted to continue going with 2-game series this season (but against the whole league). Anyway, MTL@SEA Oct 26 and SEA@MTL Mar 12.

When is the All-Star weekend in Vegas? Still on the menu even with the Olympic games?

Edit: The Golden Knights will host the 2022 Honda NHL All-Star Weekend at T-Mobile Arena, featuring the 2022 NHL All-Star Skills on Feb. 4 and the 2022 Honda NHL All-Star Game on Feb. 5.
NHL 2021-22 season schedule features Lightning, Kraken on opening night

If my count is right, 10x 2 games in 2 days.

I was all on board the covid divisions but after seeing the same 6 teams for 56 games, +11 more in the playoffs, I’m so over it now.

Why do we never start the season at home? Is there a reason for that? It seems it's always in Toronto for the first game.

Also, why are always on the road during the Christmas holidays?

Just asking ... almost complaining.

1000%

I know that in the past during the Holidays, the Bell Centre hosted shows like Disney on Ice or some kind of circus, but I don't know if that is the cause or the consequence of that Christmas trip on the road.

Cause all the Quebcois are in Florida in December and it's the only way to fill the arena for the Panthers lol

 

[CoopersFalls]

As an Ontario based Habs fan, I find it very off they're only going to Toronto and Buffalo twice each.

 

[Tyson]

Dallas bound Jan 18!!

 

[HostileCapSpace]

Habs are actually the second game at home for Seattle after the Canucks. Kind of unexpected.

Edit: League thought they would pick Price.

 

[DavePeak]

Sorry Tofu, back to only 2 games in the season against Vancouver

 

[CHfan1]

I can see the Habs possibly getting off to a hot start. They don’t face too much top competition in the first 16 games. Only 4 games against teams that made the playoffs this past season in that run (playoff teams bolded below).

Tor, Buff, NYR, SJ X 2, Car, Det X 3, Sea, LA X 2, Ana, NYI, Vegas , Cal.

For the holidays, it's because the Bell Center is usually holding other events.

But it also helps the southern teams like the ones in Florida draw crowds because of the snowbirds.

Let's see if we have a new Mr. October in Dom

October West coast trip?

Last time that happened was in 17-18 which was a disaster. At least the Pacific is weak and its at the end of the month.

 

[thewall]

Lets not forget we can't beat SJ no matter where we play them.

I hate starting vs the Leafs again. Very uncreative schedule once again.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

We don't play Ottawa until February ?

Will we ever not go on a long road trip at the end of December?

October West coast trip?

[Tuggy]

Looking forward to seeing other teams again.

Gotta start the season with something like 10-4-2 or 9-4-3...

Not enough games against Vancouver for my liking
