With the regular season getting shortened to just 62 games, each game is worth just over six percent more.
However, coaches will tend to say that the one regular season game that means the most is the first.
It's an opportunity for teams to turn a page, or even to start anew.
With a full schedule tonight, every team will have that opportunity.
The Acadie-Bathurst Titan come into the regular season after leading the pre-season with a 6-1-0 record.
Meanwhile, the Moncton Wildcats (#4), the Rimouski Oceanic (#5) and the Cape Breton Eagles (#6) will look to live up to their nominations into the CHL's top 10 rankings.
