Pittsburgh Penguins Data: Fun with NHL Edge

Tooling around on NHL Edge, the league’s player and puck tracking information and came across some interesting data points for the Penguins. Let’s jump right in with a look at where the Pens played at even strength over the course of the 2024-25 season.

The above chart detailing time in each zone might just show that the Penguins were at least in the right part of the ice most of the time compared to their peers. It’ll be interesting to see how much this changes when not coached by Mike Sullivan, as this outlook at least gives demonstrable data that the team was able to keep the puck in the offensive zone for a good chunk of time — and by default that means not playing in their defensive end.
