The Blackhawks will play six preseason games, including two against the St. Louis Blues, as the team unveiled its preseason schedule on Wednesday afternoon.
They’ll host their first preseason game on Sept. 28 when the Pittsburgh Penguins come to Chicago. Other home games are vs. St. Louis (Oct. 1) and vs. Detroit (Oct. 4). The Blackhawks will be at Pittsburgh on Sept. 30, at Detroit on Oct. 2 and at St. Louis on Oct. 8.
Ticket and broadcasting info will be released at a later date.
While the Blackhawks’ early preseason games are usually dominated by prospects looking to make the team, they’ll be even more so this fall. 12 current Blackhawks will be participating in the World Cup of Hockey, which goes from Sept. 17-Oct. 1 in Toronto.
