In the exciting hockey-less days of August we’ve been #blessed with the AHL schedule release. 

We now know that the Marlies will have four games at the ACC (3 against St. John’s, one against Portland), and they’ll open the year with back to back games against the newly minted Manitoba Moose. 

Once again the Royal Winter Fair at the Ricoh Coliseum means that November will be when the Marlies have their longest road trip (seven games). Their longest home stand will be six games starting in mid February. 

The season closes with two games at home against the Rochester Americans on April 16th and 17th and the AHL All-Star game and skills competition are scheduled for January 31st and February 1st. 

The full schedule is available after the jump.
