Compared to last season, the ECHL schedule makers will be doing the Reign a favor in 2010-11.

Though only one out of their first seven regular-season games will be played at home – Saturday, October 23 against the Stockton Thunder – the schedule gets relatively normal from there. No homestand will last longer than six games, nor will any road trip.

The only truly weird stretch features two non-consecutive home dates in 11 games spanning January and February. The last five of those games are on the road – back-to-back nights in Utah, a day off, back-to-back nights in Utah and Idaho, two days off, then a game in Bakersfield and a home game the next night against the Condors.

Other than that, there’s nothing compared to 15 out of 20 games on the road between December and January, which coincided with the Reign’s worst stretch of last season.

Among the highlights is a first-ever inter-conference series against the Elmira (NY) Jackals, Feb. 11-13, and a three-game homestand to end the regular season.
