This week in NHL hockey will see some premiere cross-conference matches as well as two quiet days. Which games should you watch?
Note: looking for November 16’s hockey schedule? You may want to take a peek at last week’s version of Your Week in NHL Hockey.
The days have grown shorter, which means that winter will soon be on its way. (Can you believe Thanksgiving is just next week? Absolutely mind-boggling, isn’t it?) As the weather gets colder and colder, fans want to stay inside for their sports, which means that your best option has become hockey.
And for those of us who don’t want to leave the house at all, you can watch games on TV practically every single day, depending on where you live. However, choosing a game is not always an easy proposition.
Enter Your Week in NHL Hockey, where we’ll tell you which teams play on which days, where you can tune in, and some best bets for every single day of the week. We source our information directly from the NHL’s official schedule and standings to pick the best bets, whether that’s a game with divisional implications or just between two powerhouse teams early on this season.
Let’s take a look at this week, shall we?
