The puck drops on the 2022 NHL season on Oct. 7, when the San Jose Sharks and the Nashville Predators start a two-game series in Prague, Czech Republic. The North American portion of the regular season gets going on Oct. 11.

The Lightning won it all in both 2020 and ‘21, but the Colorado Avalanche unseated them in 2022 and enter the ‘22-’23 season as the clear favorite to win another Stanley Cup. Here’s what to keep an eye on as the new campaign gets underway.
