The NHL released the schedule for the 2018-19 season Thursday. Here’s how the 82-game campaigns stack up for each of the seven Canadian teams:
Toronto Maple Leafs
After back-to-back trips to the Stanley Cup Playoffs, the Toronto Maple Leafs will look to take the next step in 2018-19. They’ll begin that effort at home against the rival Montreal Canadiens on Oct. 3 at the newly dubbed Scotiabank Arena.
