ST. JOHN'S, NL (August 27, 2015) - The St. John's IceCaps, in conjunction with the American Hockey League, announced the release of its 2015-16 regular season schedule today.

St. John's will launch its first season as the proud affiliate of the Montreal Canadiens on Saturday, October 10th at Hartford before heading to Bridgeport the next day for a tilt with the Sound Tigers. The IceCaps' home opener is Friday, October 16th versus the Rochester Americans, marking the first time in franchise history the IceCaps will host the Amerks.

The top prospects of the Toronto Maple Leafs (Toronto Marlies) will play the IceCaps at Mile One Centre six times, the first series slated for November 13th and 14th. Fans will take note that the IceCaps contest versus the Marlies originally scheduled for January 15th has been moved to January 17th.
