Schedule released

The schedule for the 2007-08 season was released today. The Bs kick off the season October 5 at Dallas, the first of a five-game road trip to begin the new campaign. It's an interesting beginning to the season - five on the road, a trip with former Duck Shawn Thornton to Stanley Cup-winning Anaheim (hopefully Selanne decides not to retire) and a showdown with the Sharks and Jumbo Joe himself before returning to Boston for the home-opener against Tampa. The Oct. 20 game against the Rangers should also be a good one, considering New York's bolstered line-up. I'm already excited - not to mention a little nervous.
