2026-27 Chicago Blackhawks Schedule, Dates, Start-times for Every Game

Chicago Blackhawks Official Schedule for 2026-27: Dates and Start Times for Every Game.

The Chicago Blackhawks’ full 2026-27 schedule has been released, and like other NHL teams, they’ll be embarking on a new era.

That’s because this season’s schedule will expand from 82 games to 84, with the league adjusting the slate after expanding to 32 teams in recent years and eyeing the potential for further expansion down the road.

That game will be played on Tuesday, September 29 when the Blackhawks take on the Vegas Golden Knights, who are fresh off yet another Stanley Cup Final appearance this season.

For those looking to travel abroad to see the Blackhawks, the team will head to Europe for games on December 18 and 20 against the Ottawa Senators, with those contests being played in Dusseldorf, Germany.
