Saturday’s matchup was a rematch of the Penguins’ initial home game 60 years ago, as the team hosted the Canadiens back in 1967 to officially drop the puck on the franchise.
The original puck that was used in that game was brought back out for Saturday’s ceremony.
Since that first game, the Penguins have hoisted the Stanley Cup five times, including winning back-to-back championships twice (1991, 1992, 2009, 2016, 2017).
