next season schedule released

[puckhead]

not sure if the link will work well, but it's on NHL's website NHL.com - The National Hockey League

open at home vs Pitts, then 4 game roadtrip (CBJ, Det, Phi, Edm)
6 game trip in Nov (all in west)
5 game east-coast trip in Dec.
another 5 gamer in Feb
- Sat night at home vs Tor, to Edm on Sun, then straight to Nash??
6 of our last 7 to end the season are at home
- fairly soft landing though: Edm, Col, Dal, Cal*2 among the last 7

The 6 games in Nov. has 2 back to backs... Minny/St. Lou (what is that travel like?) and then an LA/Ana ... there are 11 back to backs. only 1 is at home 8 are on the road 1 has a travel day into Van and one has a travel day out of town. In other words, 10 of the back to backs involve travel. For a team who just went to game 7 of the SCF that seems a bit unfair. I wonder how many B2Bs Boston gets and how many involve travel.....

that is after a quick scan... hope it is true....

wouldnt matter how many back to backs they get with the lack of travel in teh east it wouldnt make that much a difference. that being said we will always get a rough travel schedule.

I love everything about Corey and if something did happen with Lou moving Id be all over it for the right return to give Corey his shot. Im not big as Lack for backup I would rather have a #1b back there instead.

hoping schneids gets 30-35 games in next year

i dont really understand the formula but it shows the buyout cap hit as only $255,697 per year until 2018 then it balloons

/lol at the concept of Acquilini paying Luongo $36,000,000 to just go away lol
