Penguins Schedule: NHL Reschedules 8 Pens Games

The Pittsburgh Penguins were negatively affected this week when the New Jersey Devils were beset by additions to the NHL COVID-19 protocols list. The league postponed the Penguins’ scheduled games against New Jersey on Tuesday and Thursday.

The postponed games forced the NHL to reword portions of the schedule, including eight Penguins games. The regular season is still currently scheduled to end on May 8, but the league recently indicated they could extend that date.

More than 20 games across the league have been affected by COVID. The Penguins, 5-4-1, play the New York Islanders on Saturday night. It will be their 11th game this season.
