In just under one month, the 2015 preseason will begin.

The league detailed its 15-day, 104-game slate in this press release.

Before PHT shares the full schedule, here are a few fun facts.


  • The New York Islanders will really get started in Brooklyn.
  • There will be neutral site games in North Saanich, B.C. (Canada’ Kraft Hockeyville game), Johnstown, Pa. (the first U.S. Kraft Hockeyville match) along with ones in Quebec City, Allentown, Pa., Bakersfield, Calif., Halifax, N.S., Las Vegas, Nev., Providence R.I., St. John’s, Nfld. and Saskatoon, Sask.

OK, with that out of the way, here’s your full preseason schedule. (In case you’re wondering, the regular season begins on Oct. 7.)
