Ticketmaster showing when pre-season home games occur

Ticketmaster seems to be showing the Blackhawks' pre-season home schedule before it has been announced this year. Looking at their Hawks page, it shows the following home games:

September 23rd vs. Blue Jackets - 7:30 PM CST
September 26th vs. Wild - 7:30 PM CST
September 28th vs. Stars - 6:00 PM CST
October 5th vs. Avalanche - no time listed

The last one confuses me, however. A pre-season game as late as October 5th? Usually the regular season begins around the 3rd or 4th on most seasons, I'm trying to remember a pre-season game as late as then but not coming up with anything. Perhaps that is the home opener? Only time will tell.

10/5 opener?

That would make sense, and I’m sure the Hawks will TBA the start time to try and fit around the Cubs, Sox and Bears, all of whom may be playing that day (The Bears have a noon start in Detroit, the Cubs and Sox times will depend upon playoff matchups, if they both make it).
