The Connecticut Sun just sent out a release with its 2009 schedule. At first it seems favorable with five of the first seven games at home and five of those contests against non-playoff teams.

The Sun kick off the season on June 6 with a home game against Washington. The next day Connecticut plays its road open at Madison Square Garden against the New York Liberty team which knocked them out of the 2008 playoffs.
