Speculation: Schedule To Be Released Sunday (June 22: Now released)

[Hire Sather]

wait, the home opener is a SUNDAY?

a SUNDAY?

I can't remember the last time that happened. Ugh. Sunday is just a crap day.

It might be 20 years since our home opener was a Sunday.

Chance to get beaten by Tarasenko's Blues then Dubi and the Jackets before playing a Sunday home opener.

Yet another awful opening schedule.

Not even close to last year's as far as teams we are facing... They could easily go 2-1-1. Not sure why everyone is freaking out about playing a borderline playoff team, a non-playoff team and the Blues.

Yeah, what exactly would people ideally like to have other than the first game of the season be the home opener?

Forgive my ignorance, but what is a good opening schedule? Seems like no matter how the season starts, the fans are not happy

I was hoping it would be since MSG is actually available to start the season now. We haven't had a home opener be the season opener since 07-08 v. Florida.

Uhm, actually, it was the 2012-13 home opener.

Would have been nice to actually open at home for the first time in years, or at least not have the home opener as the back end of a back to back and third game in four night. As with most things Rangers the league does not seem to care since the Rangers sell out every game no matter what they do.

Lockout season, I won't count it. Looking back, it doesn't feel like that game happened on a Sunday. Putting myself back into my shoes that night watching the game, it didn't feel like Sunday. Weird. I'm weird. Ok.

As for not opening at home, I don't mind it. Its like having 2 openers this way.

As long as we aren't the road team for an absurd amount of other teams' openers, I'm ok with it.

Monday 10/13 is Columbus Day so a lot of kids can go to the Opener (including mine).

The home opener is the very definition of a premium game. Home opener, vs Toronto, on a Sunday, before a holiday. Interesting.

The stretch from 12/14 to the end of january is absolutely brutal.
