Denton, Texas — Dallas will play 41 home games. October includes nine dates at American Airlines Center, with six consecutive home contests late in the month. January contains 10 road games and a five-game trip.

The NHL will use an 84-game regular-season format in 2026-27, the first at that length since 1993-94. Dallas has 16 weekend home dates, while general-public timing for individual tickets has not been announced.

The Stars will begin the 2026-27 regular season Oct. 2 at American Airlines Center against the St. Louis Blues, according to the club’s schedule release.

On Feb. 20, Dallas will face the Vegas Golden Knights at AT&T Stadium in Arlington in the NHL Stadium Series. The game is set for 7 p.m. Central and ABC will televise it.

Denton is part of the Dallas-Fort Worth fan market served by the Stars; the Arlington outdoor game gives North Texas followers a regional date on the calendar.
