It may not seem like it since it’s only June, but hockey season is fast approaching. A big sign that hockey will start before you know it happened came yesterday when the Arizona Coyotes announced their schedule for the 2019-20 season.
The Coyotes historically have had tough schedules and this year is no different. If you are interested in the issues regarding back-to-back games and travel time I definitely recommend Craig Morgan’s breakdown on The Athletic.
Six of the Coyotes’ games in October are against teams that didn’t make the playoffs including games against the Ottawa Senators and the New Jersey Devils, two of the worst teams last season.
