The NHL announced the 2021-22 regular season schedule today. It’s a return to normalcy with the familiar 82 game schedule, and the divisions are back to what they once were. Unlike 2020-21, teams won’t just play the same seven division opponents over and over.
Here’s what it looks like for the Penguins (click to make bigger). The season opens on Tuesday October 12th at Tampa Bay. That will be the home opener for the Lightning, which means the Pens will have a birds eye view for banner night. It ends on April 29th with a home game against Carolina.
