2015-16 Regular season schedule released

[NucksRuleYep]

Excellent, thanks for your predictions. I do a season ticket "draft" with 3 other friends and I have 1st pick. I'm deciding between Toronto and one of the Calgary games with first pick and hoping to get a Edmonton one with 8th/9th pick.

Nice that you drew #1. We do the same thing here (draft). We do it with 5 people though, everyone takes 9 games. Same style as you guys, (guy who draws 1st picks #1, #10, #11, #20, #21, #30, #31, #40, #41). This means the guy who picks 1st doesn't need to take a pre-season game. But gets the worst regular season game which can sometimes be just as bad (e.g. Carolina on a weekday versus a Saturday Edmonton pre-season game).

Toronto always gets picked 1st in our draft too, BUT, if I draw 1st this year then I am going to definitely take the Dec 26th Edmonton game. IMO it's the best game of the year. Can't turn down McDavid's first visit + Boxing Day + Saturday Night/HNIC. It's going to be a wild night for sure.

Half season packs were released today. For some reason, the Chicago game in November is the odd game out (Since it's 20 games per pack, there's one game per season that neither pack gets. Why it's the Hawks, I have no idea.). I consider the packs pretty even, but overall, A looks better to me.

Sep 22 (Preseason) - San Jose
Sep 28 (Preseason) - Arizona
Oct 10 - Calgary
Oct 18 - Edmonton
Oct 27 - Montreal
Nov 2 - Philadelphia
Nov 22 - New Jersey
Dec 5 - Boston
Dec 9 - NY Rangers
Dec 26 - Edmonton
Jan 4 - Arizona
Jan 6 - Carolina
Jan 9 - Tampa Bay
Feb 4 - Columbus
Feb 15 - Minnesota
Feb 18 - Anaheim
Feb 25 - Ottawa
Mar 3 - San Jose
Mar 12 - Nashville
Mar 16 - Colorado
Mar 27 - Chicago
Apr 4 - Los Angeles

Pack B:
Sep 26 (Preseason) - Calgary
Oct 3 (Preseason) - Edmonton
Oct 16 - St. Louis
Oct 22 - Washington
Oct 24 - Detroit
Nov 4 - Pittsburgh
Dec 3 - Dallas
Dec 7 - Buffalo
Dec 28 - Los Angeles
Jan 1 - Anaheim
Jan 11 - Florida
Jan 26 - Nashville

Seriously, they left the Chicago game out? Not cool. That's a top game. Half season ticket owners deserve better than that :/ I bolded the games I think will be premium games. I forgot about the St Louis game on Saturday originally (Saturday).

Might not be here on the 26th but with Kessel gone I think I might take the home opener vs Calgary. Would be good to see a few of the prospects play and there will be lots of anticipation for the first home game.

Wow. Ticket prices keep plunging on stubhub. It doesn't help that stubhub has totally changed their website design and everyone is complaining about it and can't figure out how to use it.

The Cancucks vs Oilers game October 18 is the only game I will be in Vancouver for. Do you think prices will go down closer to the game or should I buy now?? ($118 upper bowl)

Tough to say but I don't imagine it going up in the next month or so. Prices seem to be trending down every week. If it were me I'd wait another couple of weeks.

Thanks, I will keep an eye on the prices!

Definitely going to the game on Oct. 18 to see McJesus.

Will be a sell out for sure and the hype will prove real.

They should come out with a winning record. They finished will about just about all of those teams last year. Number of games is brutal though, they are going to be gassed.

Honestly, I can't wait for this season. I miss everything. Gamedays, the game, the headaches etc etc. I even miss Garrett. I miss Canucks hockey. I hate how this team is being run and how it is built and who is on the roster...but I can't wait until the season is underway.
