Episode Details

The Pittsburgh Penguins embark on a challenging road trip, facing three games against the Carolina Hurricanes in March alone. Their extensive travel schedule, totaling over fifty-four thousand miles, is the second-highest in the league. This includes an eight thousand two hundred sixty-one-mile round trip to Stockholm, Sweden. Despite rules aiming to balance travel, teams like the Kraken and Panthers take fewer trips. The Penguins have a history of long road trips, with their longest being eight games in nineteen ninety-seven. Schedule makers consider teams preferred home dates and blackouts, as well as arena conflicts. Every team plays eighty-two games, and the Penguins aim to use their travel-heavy schedule to chase another Stanley Cup, like finalists Edmonton and Florida.
