Thursday October 13.2022 it all begins. This Penguin journey will start with a home game against the Arizona Coyotes. Those 2 points will go a long way toward the Penguins’ 17th consecutive NHL Playoff appearance and another attempt to hoist their 6th Stanley Cup.
As you know, the Penguins have been ousted from the NHL Playoffs in the First Round, the last four years in a row. Sometimes, because Penguin players simply were not playing up to their highest level. Sometimes, other teams were just a better team, period. Sometimes, because of injuries and the flick of a stick.
