Blackhawks Open 2025-26 NHL Season Against Panthers
The 2025-26 NHL season will open on October 7 with a tripleheader featuring the reigning Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers hosting the Chicago Blackhawks at Amerant Bank Arena, where the Panthers will raise their second championship banner. The Panthers, aiming for a historic three-peat, have retained key players despite salary cap challenges and will also host the Winter Classic outdoor game this season. The Blackhawks, celebrating their 100th anniversary, enter the season as underdogs with a young roster led by rookie star Connor Bedard, whose promising talent could energize the team despite their recent struggles and last-place finish in the Central Division. The opening night matchup is seen as a significant opportunity for the Blackhawks to showcase their potential against the two-time defending champions and serves as a spotlight event for both franchises. The NHL will release the full 2025-26 schedule soon, and the Blackhawks are also undergoing a rebuild under new head coach Jeff Blashill, who is expected to develop their young talent. The tripleheader will conclude with games between the New York Rangers and Pittsburgh Penguins, and the Colorado Avalanche facing the Los Angeles Kings.
