Wilkes-Barre Scranton Penguins Tickets

Wilkes-Barre Scranton Penguins

Northeastern Pennsylvania has backed this club since its 1999 debut, and the black and gold look carries straight down from the parent club in Pittsburgh. The Wilkes-Barre Scranton Penguins closed 2025-26 at 46-17-7-2 for 101 points, second in the American Hockey League (AHL) Atlantic Division, with Kirk MacDonald back for his third year behind the bench. Expect a deep roster of prospects skating like a call-up is on the line. Event Tickets Center lists every Penguins home game this season.

The AHL Affiliate of the Pittsburgh Penguins

Development is the whole point of the AHL, and few clubs do it better than Pittsburgh's top affiliate. Names that show up on the Pittsburgh Penguins schedule usually pass through here first, with the Florida Everblades of the ECHL forming the next rung down. Ville Koivunen earned an eight-year deal with Pittsburgh after his time in the AHL. Rutger McGroarty opened the scoring in Wilkes-Barre/Scranton's 2025-26 season finale, and goalie Sergei Murashov won 24 games with a 2.20 goals-against average that year. Watching prospects now means recognizing them later.

Wilkes-Barre Scranton Penguins at Mohegan Arena at Casey Plaza

Hockey in Wilkes-Barre Township runs through a building that opened in November 1999 with this franchise's first game. About 8,000 seats ring the ice, sightlines stay tight to the action, and roughly 3,000 parking spots make tailgating easy before puck drop. Tux the penguin works the crowd between whistles, theme nights fill the calendar, and the Mohegan Arena at Casey Plaza upcoming events list stretches past hockey into concerts and family shows.

Wilkes-Barre Scranton Penguins Schedule

The regular AHL season is made up of 72 games, split evenly at 36 at home and 36 on the road, and the 2026-27 slate opens in October at home against Springfield. Hershey visits for the first time on Saturday, Dec. 12, 2026, an I-81 rivalry that has produced two of the league's most decorated franchises and rarely a quiet night at home. Lehigh Valley and Hamilton keep the divisional traffic steady through the winter months.

Wilkes-Barre Scranton Penguins Calder Cup Playoffs

Three Calder Cup Finals appearances, in 2001, 2004, and 2008, sit on the resume without a championship attached. The 2026 run came close: a 3-1 series win over Hershey in the Atlantic Division Semifinals, a five-game grind past Springfield for the Atlantic Division Final, then a six-game loss to the Toronto Marlies in the Eastern Conference Finals that ended in overtime. That group returns hungry, and the pipeline behind it stays stocked.
