The Penguins haven’t given the home fans at PPG Paints Arena a lot to cheer about over the last several years.

With losses to the Flyers in Games and 2 of the team’s playoff series, there’s no guarantee that the fans will get to see another home hockey game in Pittsburgh this season unless the Penguins can earn a split on the road in Philadelphia, at minimum.

Since winning the Stanley Cup in 2016 and 2017, when the Penguins boasted an impressive home playoff record of 19-7 across two long playoff runs, the Penguins have won just five home playoff games.

Over the past nine seasons, the Penguins have a home record of just 5-11 across six playoff series. A seventh series was played at a neutral location in the COVID-19 pandemic “bubble.”

Only three of the Penguins’ home playoff wins have come since May of 2021.

The Penguins have a tall task ahead of themselves now, trailing 2-0 to the Flyers.

Game 3 is set for 7 p.m. tomorrow night in Philadelphia.
