It depends on the division and conference. Teams in the same division play each other more often, followed by teams in the same conference, and then they may play teams in the other conference only once or twice per year. I think they play 6 games against each team in their division and I don't think there is a set number for any other teams, but the NHL is looking to make it more consistant.
Each team plays 82 games in NHL regular season (6 times with 4 division rivals, 4 times with 10 conference rivals, 2 times with 3 rivals from the other conference and 1 time with the other 12 rivals from the other conference).
They play 41 at home and 41 away. A total of 82 games

Hockey is on TSN when there is a game playing, so often on a night of the week during the winter/early spring. TSN may also have replays on weekends or during the day for those who didn't get a chance to watch the regular game.
The American Hockey League. (AHL)
The Stanley cup is awarded to the winner in American Hockey.
In the NHL, two (2) points are awarded for a win, and one (1) point is awarded for an overtime or shoot-out loss, during regular season play.
It depends on what league you are signing up for. Typically, tryouts start in July, practices and preseason games start in August/September, and the regular season starts in late September/early October.
