BOSTON — It may be the middle of the summer, but hockey season is already on the horizon.
That much was made clear on Wednesday, when the NHL announced the schedule for the upcoming season.
For the Bruins, the regular season will begin on Oct. 12 in the nation’s capital, in a 7 p.m. game against the Washington Capitals.
Three days later, the Bruins will have their home opener on Saturday, Oct. 15, against the Arizona Coyotes.
The centerpiece of the schedule comes on Jan. 2, when the Bruins host the Pittsburgh Penguins at 2 p.m. at Fenway Park.
Boston’s first rivalry game against the Canadiens won’t come until Jan. 24 in Montreal. The Canadiens make their first visit to Boston on March 23, and the two teams will meet on April 13 in Montreal for the Bruins’ regular-season finale.
The Bruins will go up against Bruce Cassidy’s Vegas Golden Knights twice in one week, first hosting the Knights on Dec. 5 before playing in Vegas on Dec. 11.
