Isles will be first in 2009-10!

First to play a game, that is!  Only 33 days away.

There's relatively little chance that the Isles will play in the last game of the 2009-2010 season, but they will play in the first -- their game on September 14th is the earliest pre-season game, based on the complete schedule released by the NHL this morning.

(Note that there are some time differences between this and what the Isles previously announced themselves.  However, I think that the Isles may have the time right in Saskatoon.  Those are listed as 7:00 local starts.  While Saskatchewan is in the central time zone (the things you learn by reading Forever1940), they do not observe Daylight Savings Time, which would make these 9:00 NY time games.)

 Forever1940 is the nom de plume of Eric Hornick, statistician on Islander home telecasts since 1982.
