Maple Leafs announce 2021-2022 schedule

Tonight the NHL is announcing the schedule for the coming 2021-2022 season. The easiest place to find that schedule is at NHL.com/schedule. They may be slightly delayed in updating that after this announcement tonight, but it’s not like you can buy tickets to Leafs games yet.

The 2021-22 @NHL season will open on Oct. 12th with the @TBLightning raising their #StanleyCup banner followed by the debut of the @SeattleKraken in Vegas. Day 2 has a four-game slate with a pair of all-Canadian matchups.

As of tonight we don’t know the following:

1. When tickets will be sold and what the capacity limits or other rules will be
2. What the border travel rules will be in October
3. If there is going to be a 2022 Winter Olympics that features NHL players
4. Who is on left wing on the top line of the Maple Leafs

Once we know those things, planning a game night will get a little easier.

If you really need to know know what’s going on, here you go.
