With the NHL and NHLPA ratification of a new CBA they have also established a schedule for the next few months of life for hockey fans.

We knew that Jets training camp was scheduled to get underway on Monday and we learned on Friday that the Jets and Flames will get underway with their Best-of-Five play-in series on Saturday, August 1st.
