Most of us will be watching the vast majority of Blackhawks games from home or the local bar next season, and that means Thursday’s announcement of the complete television broadcast schedule for next season is some pretty important news.
Most of the games will be broadcast on local television with CSN and WGN, but some national games on NBC and NBCSN are peppered throughout the schedule as well. Once again, Pat Foley and Eddie Olczyk will be providing the coverage on local broadcasts.
We’ll have more detailed breakdowns of the schedule as preview season winds up later this month, but for now, here’s the schedule (via CSN Chicago):
