Never mind, you're right. I had quickly glanced through and I thought I had seen those two teams. Still, an Eastern Conference team hasn't come up to Alaska in the regular season since 2007.
It will be cool to see Las Vegas come in to Reading. I am just thankful it didn't cut down on the 43 games scheduled against Elmira, Trenton and Wheeling.
I get it that travel costs are a huge issue, but with several new teams coming into the East, it would be nice if 60 percent of the schedule wasn't against the same three teams every year. I guess I will do what I have done the past several years -- try to hit as many different teams as possible while keeping the Elmira, Trenton and Wheeling games to a bare minimum.
We start the season with 6 straight at home, then 6 on the road, then back home for 6 more. Later in the year we have a 7 game road trip.
1/3 of our home dates are over by November....
Only 25 of our home games are on Friday/Saturday.
Yes, but you only have 3 Wednesday night games. I don't think you can complain too much when over 90% of your home games are on the weekend, especially when your 7 Sunday games are at 4:05.

You are lucky, we don't see any Western teams. We also don't see every East team as Florida and Gwinnett don't come to town.
I do too. It would be different if each team returned a core every year for years. Hell, Reading won't even have Labelle anymore.
Theres this stretch in December/early January that 4 of 5 home games are against Reading...
