There are a few things about the 2014-15 schedule that struck me. Among them are:
• The Devils do not play a single matinée all season long, home or away. I cannot recall this ever happening before. Of course, that could change, depending on NBC’s flex scheduling.
• The Devils play in my home state of Florida twice the first week of the season. I may get to see Games 2 and 3 of the season in person.
• I like playing the Western Conference teams twice, but it just doesn’t seem right the Devils play the Islanders Flyers and Rangers only four times in the regular season.

• The Devils, in addition to practically starting the season in Florida, also finish it here. They play at Tampa April 9 and in Sunrise April 11 to close out the regular season.
• The Stanley Cup Champs come to town once, March 23.
• Zach Parise will spend Nov. 11 in Newark.
• The Devils play 16 back-to-back games -- again, an absurdly high number.
• The Devils play one game before 7 p.m. ET all season long, on March 8 vs. Philadelphia at 5 p.m.
