It will be a quick one-game homestand for the Flyers.
They will open the season on NBC next Saturday against the Penguins and wont return to Wells Fargo Center until Jan. 24 against the Rangers.
It will be a game every other day, it seems, for the remainder of this shortened season.
Because there are 15 teams each playing 48 games in a shortened season, the scheduled is unbalanced.
There is no inter-conference play; all games are within the conference.
Without question, the Atlantic Division remains the toughest division in the Eastern Conference. From the Flyers' standpoint, they will play the Rangers and Devils five times each, three times on the road.
They will play the Penguins and Islanders four times.
Outside the division, the Flyers will travel to snow-barren Winnipeg twice but host the Jets just once. They will also play Buffalo, Montreal, Tampa Bay and Toronto twice on the road and just once at home.
The remaining non-division games will see the Flyers get home ice twice against Boston, Carolina, Florida, Ottawa and Washington.
