Permanent daylight time brings quirky NHL start times to Western Canada

Western Canada’s NHL teams are navigating an unusual start to the season thanks to permanent daylight time, which has shifted game schedules to later hours for local fans. The Calgary Flames (0-3-0) are looking to snap their winless streak when they host the Colorado Avalanche (2-1-0) on Thursday night at Scotiabank Saddledome, marking the Avalanche’s first back-to-back road games of the season.

Meanwhile, the Edmonton Oilers (2-0-1) are set to begin a three-game road trip in California, facing the Anaheim Ducks on Wednesday. The Winnipeg Jets have also started the season without goaltender Connor Hellebuyck, who remains suspended after requesting a trade and skipping training camp, leaving the team to explore new options in net.
