The Golden Knights will begin their inaugural NHL regular season on the road on Oct. 6 against Dallas.
The NHL announced the 2017-18 home openers for all 31 teams Wednesday and the Knights are the visiting team for the Stars. The following night, Oct. 7, the Knights travel to Glendale to be the opponent for the Arizona Coyotes in their home opener.
The Knights’ first-ever regular-season home game T-Mobile Arena will be Oct. 10 against the Coyotes.
The entire 2017-18 NHL schedule will be released Thursday morning. Owner Bill Foley said the team had gone back to the NHL and asked them to tweak a couple of portions of the schedule that initially had the team with extended homestands and road trips of eight and nine games.
