Senators fans can mark Monday, October 13 as the team's home opener, when the Sens will take on the Nashville Predators in a Thanksgiving matinee.

Noteworthy dates to look forward to:

  • The reigning Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers will visit Ottawa twice: Saturday, January 10 and Thursday, April 9.
  • The NHL will take a two week break mid-February as NHL players return to the Olympics for the first time since 2014.

Last year, the Senators hosted a wide variety of theme nights at home games throughout the season. From the fan-favourite Star Wars night to Kids Takeover, there was something for every Sens fan. This season will see the return of fun and interactive theme games — stay tuned for more information to come later this summer!
