Preview Roundups
October 04, 2017
Toronto at Winnipeg 7:00 PM ET
Auston Matthews was one step ahead of Patrik Laine at the 2016 draft and kept that slim advantage in their spirited race to the stage at the 2017 NHL Awards, with the Toronto Maple Leafs forward accepting the Calder Memorial Trophy. Matthews looks to once again gain the jump on his adversary as he leads the Maple Leafs into Bell MTS Place to face Laine and the Winnipeg Jets on Wednesday in the season opener for both teams.
St. Louis at Pittsburgh 8:00 PM ET
The Pittsburgh Penguins ended a 19-year NHL drought in June, becoming the first team to repeat as Stanley Cup championships since the Detroit Red Wings in 1997-98. Sidney Crosby and Co. will raise the fifth championship banner in franchise history to the rafters Wednesday night before kicking off the season against the visiting St. Louis Blues.
Calgary at Edmonton 10:00 PM ET
Touted as a once-in-a generation talent, Connor McDavid already has lived up to the hype, one major reason why the Edmonton Oilers are a trendy pick to reach the Stanley Cup Finals. Amid great expectations, McDavid and the Oilers open the season against another team with lofty ambitions when they host the Calgary Flames on Wednesday night.
Philadelphia at San Jose 10:30 PM ET
The San Jose Sharks followed up a trip to the Stanley Cup Finals by seeing a high-powered offense fall back to the pack as the team failed to navigate its way out of the first round of the playoffs last spring. The Sharks look to locate their offensive rhythm right from the start on Wednesday as they host the Philadelphia Flyers at SAP Center in San Jose in the season opener for both teams.
