Two games start in the morning. Charlotte plays at Hartford on Tuesday, Nov. 17, at 11 a.m., and hosts the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins on Tuesday, Dec. 8, at 10:30 a.m., which the club is calling its first School Day Game.
The trip west comes at the end of October: two games against the Colorado Eagles on Oct. 27 and 28, both starting at 9:05 p.m. Eastern, then two against the Iowa Wild on Oct. 30 and Nov. 1.
