Islanders Announce 2021-22 Regular Season Schedule

 

[BrockLobster]

As a guy who works in construction color me shocked that the project is running late

 

[Throttle]

The Pacific is mainly lotto teams: SJ, ANA, LAK, AZ or wherever they are, SEA. That's possibly 5 of the 13. Ha, just saw schedule...nowhere near west coast swing for those 13...

That's a bizarro away schedule.

 

[The Wahligator]

Another 7 game road trip in April as well. We’re gonna have to have a very strong winter.

 

[KevFu]

We have 13 on the road to start.... and finish with 9 of the last 14 on the road as well.

That's 32 of 46 at home in the middle. We better do serious damage from Nov. 20 to April 1.

 

[YearlyLottery]

What a wild start to the season.

 

[Lame Lambert]

 

[The Wahligator]

Wow our schedule sucks

 

[The Wahligator]

Makes it even more important to spell guys like Greene with younger players

 

[Big L]

Wow our schedule sucks

Yeah it does.

first 13 all over the place.

league f***ed us hard

 

[boredmale]

Sort of weird we don't play a game for 5 days from Oct 25-29) which works out great for me since I was just lining up my work schedule(shift work) to the Islanders schedule. That is one week I don't have to worry I work Evenings. lol

 

[boredmale]

Yeah it does.

first 13 all over the place.

league f***ed us hard

I disagree, it's much better to get the away games over with earlier in the season

 

[BMOK33]

19 back to backs is just crazy. Next closest it’s 13

 

[Osakahaus]

Well then, 13 on the road. Bring it on. If you wanna be the best, do it on the road

Gotta overpromise cost and schedule to get the job…..

 

[The Wahligator]

19 back to backs is just crazy. Next closest it’s 13

Silver lining is that we’re elite on the second half of back to backs under Trotz

 

[Big L]

No that’s fine, but 13 all over the place on the road to start, 19 back to backs, and then a lot on the road to end the reg season….. we got f***ed.

 

[Osakahaus]

Yeah it does.

first 13 all over the place.

league f***ed us hard

Doesn't help that our arena is running late so....

Yeah make or break schedule for us. I don't wanna make excuses but lets see if this team can do it for 13 games. You wanna do well? Make do with what the schedule will do.

 

[BMOK33]

At least half the back to backs are both home games. I’m not sure I ever saw that. Typically back to backs are home road or road home or both road

 

[KevFu]

It is to be expected that NY/NJ teams have the most back-to-backs since we're so close. Same with LA/ANA

Our road or split back-to-backs:
at ARZ, VGK
at WIN, MIN
at TB, FLA
at SEA, VAN
at LA, ANA
(Those are all "travel partners," not bad)

DAL at home, at PHI (not bad)
at BOS, home vs TB (not bad)

at BUF, home vs CAR
at PIT, at MON
ARZ at home, at TOR
at DET, home vs CHI (oof)

 

[Osakahaus]

thats rough

In general the Isles/Rangers/Devils/Lightning/Panthers/Knights/Avs/Coyotes/Blues/Wild/Kings/Sharks tend to benefit the most by catching teams at home who played the night before

 

[MJF]

Some of the road trips are screwy. In March going from Dallas to Raleigh to St Louis is crazy.

Miles in the air is going to be off the charts for us this year.

 

[19 Straight]

Why the need for the 2 week - 9 game road trip in April after the opening 13/month on the road??? Is that for the circus coming to UBS????

 

[BrockLobster]

Eying the jackets game in October as a possible trip
