For the first time in a number of years, the Senators have a very balanced (by month) schedule for the 2008-09 season. The Home vs. Road breakdown looks like this:

HOME |

TOTAL |
| OCTOBER |
6* |
4* |

| NOVEMBER |

* indicates one game home, one game road both in Stockholm, Sweden to start the season
About the Senators' season-opening games with the Pittsburgh Penguins in Stockholm, GM Bryan Murray said "any time you're selected to represent the league in a foreign country, it's an honour."
"It will be especially fun for me and my family," added captain Daniel Alfredsson.
The Sens will play a pre-season "exhibition" game against Alfie's old Swedish team, the Frolunda Indians, in Gothenburg on Oct. 2 prior to the two games vs. the Penguins in Stockholm on Oct 4 and 5. Both games will be broadcast back to Ottawa with further details to be released at a later date.
Another highlight of the new schedule is the arrival of the Stanley Cup champion Detroit Red Wings for the home-opener here at Scotiabank Place on Saturday, Oct. 11 at 7 p.m. If it is anything like last season's much-publicized battle in January, it will certainly not disappoint. One can hardly wait.

The guy we drafted Karlsson plays for that team should be interesting.
