[Dr Dan Stantz]

I'm definitely looking forward to going to at least one of the games against San Jose.

Really happy that everyone will play everyone at least once this year. No more 8 games against your own division, that's been cut down to 6.

wow what a march schedule

[Dr Dan Stantz]

15 games in 30 days... fuck you NHL Schedule Maker!

Three things stand out:

#1) October may set the table a bit - two testers to start, followed by a 3-game road trip which ends with a "home-home" with SJ, a home-home with NJ, @ Atlanta, and ending at home vs. the Isle. Not the prettiest way to open a season, to say the least.

#2) 6-game road trip spanning Dec-Jan - always interesting when a team is on the road for an extended time.

#3) March may be tough, but April is way to weak for me. Would much rather end with a schedule more like last year - have complete destiny of the division in your hands. It may still be an interesting April, but at this point, it's too weak for my liking.

I agree with you outside of the Atlanta and Isles games. The Isles suck, and Nitty will continue his string of never losing to Atlanta. Play him every time we play them I say.

While I agree long road trips are usually tough... that's shorter than our usual one that takes place around this time in the schedule every year due to the circus or whatever.

March definitely looks to be our biggest challenge of the season. April is a slow note to end on and I definitely think that the way we ended last year helped us play such good hockey throughout the playoffs.
