While the team has 15 sets of back-to-back games, the longest road trip of the season is a six-game jaunt out west (Edmonton, Seattle, Vancouver, Calgary, Winnipeg,  and Minnesota), in February. The second-longest road trip is four central games (Chicago, Colorado, Vegas, and Utah) in October. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While the Flyers will not be in town for the annual night before Thanksgiving game at PPG Paints Arena, the Penguins will have a pair of home games around turkey day. On Wednesday, Nov. 25, they host Calgary, and Saturday, Nov. 28, they host Toronto. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As part of the 84-game schedule, the Penguins will face each Metropolitan Division opponent four times (two home\/two road), each Western Conference opponent twice (one home\/one road), and each Atlantic Division opponent three times. Half of the Atlantic Division foes host the Penguins twice (Buffalo, Montreal, Detroit, and Florida), while half visit Pittsburgh twice (Toronto, Tampa Bay, Ottawa, and Boston).<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Otherwise, the 2026-27 Penguins schedule is more relaxed than the breakneck schedule of 2025-26, which included several compact sections, a trip to Sweden, and 17 games in 31 days in March. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Penguins\u2019 season opener is Sept. 30 in Philadelphia, followed by home games against Montreal and Winnipeg. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The team is offering 12-Packs and priority deposits for premium rentals and group experiences <a href=\"https:\/\/urldefense.proofpoint.com\/v2\/url?u=https-3A__www.nhl.com_penguins_tickets_&amp;d=DwMGaQ&amp;c=euGZstcaTDllvimEN8b7jXrwqOf-v5A_CdpgnVfiiMM&amp;r=NqsvnNC704yQ7OBURL_AAbmd-C5GhEXv_tyCvAMT6qc&amp;m=xNF0ZrYQIEYVjCgzCAnUMmn1PhhKHrI9MPj3KvNhsjNL01HPhU3htQZcPhh2jcEf&amp;s=1XZWT0K0p3xRsvto4Onfz0NsZZuMhH0lpHvBUYQfqHA&amp;e=\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"external noopener noreferrer nofollow\">here<\/a>.
