- The home portion of the schedule includes 9 Wednesdays, 10 Fridays, 10 Saturdays and 5 Sundays
- Game times remain 7:07 PM for all days excluding Sunday, which remain 2:07 PM starts

"The League chose to return to play this year with a schedule that would provide all teams the optimum opportunity for success. We largely modeled the structure of games after the NHL this season, consisting of mainly regional play along with reduced travel and costs" stated Commissioner David Branch
As a result the Hounds will play the Windsor Spitfires 8 times (+2), Guelph Storm 6 times (+2), Kitchener Rangers 6 times (+2), Owen Sound Attack 4 times (+2), North Bay Battalion 6 times (+2) and Sudbury Wolves 10 times (+4) compared to previous seasons.
- Unique to this season's schedule, the Hounds will entertain 6 teams in double-header games in Sault Ste. Marie:
North Bay Battalion (Oct. 22-23)
Guelph Storm (Nov. 5-6)
Windsor Spitfires (January 7-8)
Sarnia Sting (February 11-12)
London Knights (February 25-26)
