The Golden Knights will play five of their first six games on the road, the NHL announced Thursday as the 2018-19 schedule was released.
The Knights play at Washington on Oct. 10 in a rematch of the Stanley Cup Final and face Pittsburgh the following night during a season-long five-game road trip.
The NHL announced Wednesday the Knights open the season at home Oct. 4 against Philadelphia and play at Minnesota on Oct. 6 in the Wild’s home opener.
Following the early road trip, the Knights have a five-game homestand from Oct. 16 to Oct. 28, their longest of the season.
