The AHL has released the 2012-13 schedule this afternoon. This year's schedule is garnering interest from more than just AHL fans as the NHL faces a potential lockout situation and NHL faithful are looking for a hockey fix elsewhere.
Texas, of course, plays a full slate of 76 games split evenly 38 home and 38 road. The schedule is made up entirely of Western Conference opponents with all 14 teams making a visit to the CPC while Texas makes a return visit to each. The season starts on the road in San Antonio on October 13th and comes home immediately for their first home game on Sunday the 14th against Charlotte. The season stretches all the way to April 20th this season.
Important notes about the season include:
The Stars play most of their games against the South Division, a total of 44 games. San Antonio, Houston and OKC will each see Texas 12 times. Charlotte will get a surprising eight contests against Texas. Eighteen of the remaining games will be against the Midwest and fourteen against the North.
Month by month breakdowns are:
Texas also will have eleven of their first fifteen at home and follow that with eleven of the next fourteen on the road.
