The 2022–23 Pittsburgh Penguins season was the 56th season for the National Hockey League team that was established on June 5, 1967. [2]

Contents

During the season Evgeni Malkin and Kris Letang each played in their 1,000th NHL game, joining Sidney Crosby as the only players in franchise history to accomplish this feat while playing all 1,000 games for the Penguins. [3] [4]

They were eliminated from playoff contention on April 12, 2023 after the New York Islanders defeated the Montreal Canadiens, missing the postseason for the first time since 2006, [5] and ending the longest active playoff appearance streak among the four major North American sports leagues at 16 years. [6] [7] [8] Consequently, the Los Angeles Dodgers of Major League Baseball (MLB), making the playoffs every year since 2013, now owned the longest active playoffs streak across four major North American professional sports while the New York Red Bulls of Major League Soccer (MLS) do the same in all five North American professional sports, making the playoffs every year since 2010. [9] [10] Meanwhile, the Boston Bruins and the Toronto Maple Leafs now own the longest active playoffs streaks in the NHL, both at 7 years after both the Nashville Predators and Washington Capitals, both had eight straight playoff berths, missed out.

Evgeni Vladimirovich Malkin is a Russian professional ice hockey centre and alternate captain for the Pittsburgh Penguins of the National Hockey League (NHL). Nicknamed "Geno", Malkin began his career with his hometown club Metallurg Magnitogorsk, playing for their junior and senior teams. He was then selected second overall in the 2004 NHL Entry Draft by the Pittsburgh Penguins, though an international transfer dispute delayed the start of his NHL career until 2006.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Kris Letang</span> Canadian ice hockey player (born 1987)

Kristopher Joseph Pierre Irwin Letang is a Canadian professional ice hockey defenceman and alternate captain for the Pittsburgh Penguins of the National Hockey League (NHL). He played juniors in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL) for three seasons, during which time he was selected 62nd overall by the Penguins in the 2005 NHL Entry Draft. In his second full NHL season, Letang won the 2009 Stanley Cup with Pittsburgh. He became a two-time Stanley Cup champion when the Penguins defeated the San Jose Sharks in 2016, and a three-time Stanley Cup champion when the Penguins defeated the Nashville Predators in 2017.

The Pittsburgh Penguins 2006–07 season was rife with potential, as the team featured one of the largest groups of young stars in the National Hockey League (NHL). Evgeni Malkin, the second overall pick in the 2004 NHL entry draft, came to the United States from Russia prior to the season and joined the team. He promptly became the first NHL rookie since 1917 to score goals in each of his first six games. Malkin and second-year phenom Sidney Crosby were joined by 18-year-old Jordan Staal, who made the jump directly from the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) to the Penguins roster after being drafted second overall in the 2006 NHL entry draft. The Penguins also brought back Mark Recchi via free agency, giving Recchi his third stint with the team. It would also be the first season the team would have involving defenceman and soon-to-be alternate captain Kris Letang.

During the season, the Penguins wore gold patches with "250" on them, honoring the city of Pittsburgh's 250th anniversary in 2008.
