I see the league has done some work to counteract the potential of a slow start. Already in game two they get to wait at home for a tired opponent (Chicago) with travel and less than 24 hours between games. Can guarantee the Blackhawks backup goalie here also.
Then they get the Flames on a B2B with travel. Six of the first eight at home.
They then get to go into Detroit and wait, while the Wings are on the road the day before.
