Iowa Wild Announces Full 2020-2021 Schedule
January 22, 2021 - American Hockey League (AHL)
Iowa Wild News Release
Iowa Wild and the American Hockey League announced today the complete 2020-21 schedule. The Wild are slated to play a shortened season of 34 games due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with an even split of home and road games.
"As we prepare for a season unlike any other in our 85-year history, our priorities are first and foremost health and safety," said AHL President and Chief Executive Officer Scott Howson. "Our main objective is to provide a safe environment for our players to continue their development towards a career in the National Hockey League."
For the seventh straight year, the Wild begin their season at Wells Fargo Arena as Iowa opens by welcoming the Texas Stars on Friday, Feb. 5 at 7:00 p.m. Opening night is game one of a four-game homestand for the Wild and is their longest consecutive stint at home of the season.
The home schedule includes 14 weekend games (six on Friday, six on Saturday, and two on Sunday) and three weekday matchups (one on Monday, one on Wednesday, and one on Tuesday). April sees the Wild at home five times, the most of any month, while February, March, and May feature four home games apiece. April also holds ten games in store for Iowa, the most total games of any month, and May contains the least with six.
All Friday home games feature $2.00 beer, presented by 100.3 "The Bus" (deal concludes at the end of the first period) and $3.00 off Captain Morgan products all game long. Saturday home contests include two for $12.00 Tallboys Happy Hour leading up to puck drop. Monday, Feb. 8 versus Texas is Dollar Dog Night and Tuesday, Apr. 13 versus Rockford is two for $12.00 Tallboys until the end of the first period. Additional game promotions, events, and giveaways will be announced at a later date.
The entirety of the Wild's regular season is comprised of Central Division opponents. Iowa plays Texas 12 times (six home, six road), Rockford ten times (five home, five road), Chicago eight times (four home, four road), and Grand Rapids four times (two home, two road). Milwaukee elected to opt-out of the 2020-21 season and former Central Division rival, Manitoba, is playing in the Canadian Division.
