While we’re still waiting around for a while longer for the much anticipated drop of the NHL schedule, we now have an early opportunity to begin planning out their hockey related schedule, filling out their planners, and what have you. Everyone’s autumns are beginning to come into focus. That is, the Phantoms’ 2025-26 schedule is here!
After they wrap up their slate of preseason action in the first week of October (those game dates are yet to be announced), the Phantoms will open their season with a two-game homestand, with their opener against the Belleville Senators coming on Saturday the 11th (where we might see our old pal Olle Lycksell, if he doesn’t make Ottawa’s opening night roster), and then following that up with a Sunday matinee against the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins, for their first meeting since the Phantoms bounced them from the postseason in the play-in round last spring.
