Florida Everblades News Release
ESTERO, Fla. - The Florida Everblades, in conjunction with the ECHL, have released their regular season home schedule for the 2020-21 season. The Everblades open their 23rd ECHL campaign at home against the Orlando Solar Bears on Friday, October 17th at the Hertz Arena.
Eight different opponents are set to visit the Hertz Arena during this coming 36 game regular season, with a bulk of the 'Blades' opposition coming against foes from the South Division. The Everblades will host two teams from outside their division, the Newfoundland Growlers (North) & Idaho Steelheads (Mountain), for three home games each. The Growlers are the last team to win the Kelly Cup in the 2018-19 season and Idaho hasn't been to Southwest Florida since the 2015-16 season.
Most of Florida's home contests fall on either Friday or Saturday nights this coming season. The Everblades play 10 tilts on Friday, 15 contests on Saturday, 10 on Wednesday and 1 on Monday. Almost two-thirds of the 36 total home games will fall between December and February.
Norfolk & Orlando will visit Florida 6 times, the most of any teams coming to Estero for the upcoming season. The Everblades will see their other in-state rival, Jacksonville, on 5 occasions at Hertz Arena. South Carolina (5), Atlanta (4) and Greenville (4) will also make stops to Southwest Florida for the 2020-21 season. All game dates and times are subject to change.
