I, like most people, would just prefer as few back to backs as possible. As a STH, I wish there were a few Friday and Sunday home stands, as opposed to the many Thursday and Saturday games.
In the big picture I think Friday and Sunday home games will generally be given preference to the Hitmen. Fridays and Saturdays home game dates from January on will usually given to the Roughnecks. This way the ownership group will maximize their revenue. Flames fans will still pay for Flames home games even if there were fewer Saturday games. Notice that there are 22 Flames home games in 2015. There are only three Flames Saturday home dates in those 22 home games.
