The AHL announced their 2020-21 schedule today, marking the last crucial piece of information fans were waiting for regarding the season. Teams play anywhere from 24 to 44 games, with numbers of games differing even among teams in a given division.
This season, teams are attempting to stay off the road as much as possible. The league also had to consider local travel restrictions to consider when devising the schedules. Some teams will see only two other opponents across the season due to various restrictions.
The Chicago Wolves, new AHL affiliate of the Carolina Hurricanes, will play 30 games this year, with 15 on the road and 15 being played at the Triphahn Ice Arena, their practice facility and temporary home for this season.
