Wednesday October 2nd is a day that every Oiler fan should mark immediately on their calendar, as the Edmonton Oilers will host the Vancouver Canucks in the first regular season game of the season. The 2019/2020 Schedule has been released!
Looking at the schedule we can glean a few details and try and make some hypothesis based on how tough or easy that we believe the schedule to be. Here are a few thoughts.
- The Oilers are one of 8 teams that play on opening night and one of 4 Canadian teams. On that night the Senators play the Leafs, the Capitals play the Blues, and the Sharks play the Vegas Golden Knights.
