The CWHL today announced today its schedule for the 2016/17 season.

The Blades begin their season on the road in Toronto on Oct 15 and will play their home opener later that month, on Oct 29, against Calgary.

Boston's schedule is a bit lopsided, as just four of the team's 12 home games will be played before the new year. In addition, after playing all six games against Brampton in a row last season, the Blades will close out the year with four straight facing the Thunder at home.

While times and locations were not included in the CWHL's announcement, the Blades will not be returning to the New England Sports Center in Marlborough this year. Instead, the majority of Boston's home games will be played at UMass Boston and Boston University's Walter Brown Arena.
