The 2019/20 schedule – announced tomorrow!
The KHL schedule for the 2019/20 season will be unveiled on Thursday, July 11. But ahead of the big reveal, KHL.ru can announce the program for the first two days of the coming season, plus the first home game for each of the 24 clubs competing in Season 12.
As usual, the regular season starts on September 1 with the traditional Opening Cup game. Moscow’s CSKA Arena will host a showdown between CSKA and Avangard. Back in April, for the first time, the Gagarin Cup was lifted by the regular season champion – so the big curtain-raiser is a reprise of the playoff grand final.
In total, 24 teams will play 744 games in the 2019/20 regular season. The action runs from Sep. 1 to Feb. 27 … and then the playoffs get underway.
Game schedule for the first two days of the regular season:
Sunday, Sep. 1
CSKA vs Avangard
Monday, Sep. 2
