It’s the NHL season that will be like none other and it begins for the Vegas Golden Knights Jan. 14 when the Anaheim Ducks visit T-Mobile arena.
The 56-game regular season schedule lasts from mid-January to May, with two months of postseason playoffs to mid-July.
To cope with the COVID-19 pandemic, the schedule consists of two-game serieses between teams in the same division. There will be four divisions. including a North Division of the seven Canadian teams.
Here’s the Vegas Golden Knights schedule.
No fans will attend games at most arenas at the start: “The NHL and NHLPA determined that the ongoing closure of the U.S.-Canada border required realignment and the League and the Players also sought to minimize team travel as much as possible by shifting to exclusively intradivisional play. It is the current plan to play games in the home arenas of participating teams while understanding that most arenas will not, at least in the initial part of the season, be able to host fans,” according to NHL.
The Golden Knights will play seven teams in their eight-team west division: Ducks, Kings, Blues, Wild, Coyotes, Sharks and Avalanche.
