Notes
- 1967–68 marked the first full season that all Hockey Night in Canada games (regular season and playoffs) were televised in color. Some 1966-67 games, including the Stanley Cup Finals, were also televised in color. Also, during this time Toronto and Montreal more alternated each week hosting the show that was seen nationally, whichever is more competitive. The opposite game was then downgraded to regional status for airing in Ontario or Quebec only. Ward Cornell hosted the Toronto Maple Leafs at Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto or the Montreal Canadiens games at the Forum in Montreal, whichever is game is televised nationally. Jack Dennett hosts the opposite game that was downgraded to airing in Ontario or Quebec.
