That opens a lot of variables and a lot of room for opinion though, so I see why they just do the opponents ranking.
I think less so this early in the season, though. My suspicion is that while all players ate still really fresh and healthy to start thr year, back-to-backs are not nearly as impactful now as they are in February or March.

Kadri and Huberdeau are going to feast on the Kraken.

another reason why multiple long breaks at the start of the season wasn't ideal...Flames now have the easiest strength of schedule moving forward but also the most condensed schedule

Why is it so GD hard to sell tickets to this game? Flames are good, have fun players, and play a style of hockey that is entertaining and breeds wins! It's a struggle to even give tickets away to friends! What gives?

Tuesday night after Halloween, snowstorm, mediocre opponent, 9 of 10 games at home to start the season (last one is a big one IMO)

well personally I can't go to 8 or 9 hockey games a month...too many other things going on. I would go to more games if they were spread out

seems I'm not the only one who wants to watch on my warm couch tonight as opposed to going out in a blizzard

supply and command

Kraken's goalie depth is hurting right now.

As long as they don't take Seattle for granted they should come away with 2 points, zero excuse not to. GFG!
