Winnipeg Jets 2017-18 season/home opener is against the Toronto Maple Leafs

The Jets home opener will be October 4th against the Toronto Maple Leafs as the Laine vs. Matthews drama kicks off early in their sophomore season in the NHL.  The rest of the Jets regular season schedule will be released tomorrow at 2 pm CT.  They are calling this the home opener not season opener but as the NHL has now released all other teams home openers, it is clear this game against Toronto will serve as both the Jets home and season opener.

The Flames have tweeted out that they will face the Jets in their home opener on October 7th so it will be a short stint at home for Winnipeg.

In case you missed it here is the Jets entire pre-season schedule.

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
