Press Release
Penguins Announce 2020-21 Regular Season Schedule
The Pittsburgh Penguins will open their 2020-21 regular season on January 13 in Philadelphia, as they take on the Flyers in their first season opener against their cross-state rival since 2013. The Penguins’ 2020-21 season is presented by UPMC.
The full 56-game schedule, which can be viewed here, will look a little different than Pittsburgh’s traditional schedule due to the NHL’s division realignment for the 2020-21 season.
The Penguins will be competing in the newly-formed East Division along with the Boston Bruins, Buffalo Sabres, New Jersey Devils, New York Islanders, New York Rangers, Philadelphia Flyers and Washington Capitals. As a result, Pittsburgh will face the other seven teams in the East Division eight times, with four games in Pittsburgh and four matchups on the road, for a total of 56 games.
After two season-opening games in Philadelphia on Jan. 13 & 15, the Penguins will return to PPG Paints Arena for its home opener on Jan. 17 to face Alex Ovechkin and the Washington Capitals.
The Penguins’ home opener begins a four-game home stand, one of five this season, which includes two games versus Washington and two matchups against 2020 first overall pick Alexis Lafreniere and the New York Rangers.
Pittsburgh’s season includes 26 sets of games where the Penguins will be playing the same opponent in two-consecutive games, and also features six sets of back-to-back contests.
The Penguins hit the road nine times this season, with their longest road trip occurring April 1-11 during a five-game road trip to Boston, New York (Rangers) and New Jersey.
Game times and broadcast information will be announced at a later date. Below are a few other key dates for the upcoming season:
- Jan. 3 - Training camp opens
- Jan. 13 - 2020-21 regular season begins
- April 12 - Trade deadline (3PM ET)
- May 8 - Last day of regular season
- May 11 - Stanley Cup Playoffs begin*
- July 9 - Last possible day of Stanley Cup Final*
*Subject to adjustment
The Penguins will be excited to welcome fans back to PPG Paints arena when permitted by state and local safety and arena-capacity protocols.
Penguins season ticket holders and suite holders will receive priority access to available tickets, likely by a lottery system. Full details will be communicated directly to season ticket holders and suite holders.
