What's the deal with tomorrow's start in Seattle?

Just read that ESPN is going to use Ray Ferraro for the STL/SEA game and have him immediately fly into SLC for CHI/UTA.

Not sure why the NHL didn't make the early game on the east coast. I think there are a few teams that still would sell out with a 4:30 PM start.

Devils had a 1:00 PM start year Hughes was a rookie on Columbus Day, I took the afternoon off and surprised my son by taking him out of school early for the game.

What's the deal with NHL scheduling in general, consistently never making sense

Seattle requested to have the first game of the season (I believe Ferraro said this) and it wouldn't make sense to have them on at the same time as an eastern game.

They at least could've maybe picked Vancouver to be the road team.

NHL on twitter: Are you excited to see Michkov?

Also NHL: you will start you career somewhere on the northwest, don't forget your jacket kid.

Vancouver is a balmy 19C. Not.sure of he needs a jacket bud.

Listen, if Baseball can play some of their most important games of the season at noon on a Monday, one random NHL game shouldn't matter.
