The Pittsburgh Penguins are adding a new look to the rotation, and this one is built to shout Pittsburgh.
The club unveiled its Hometown Remix uniforms, an alternate set meant to spotlight the city’s culture and its fans. The design pulls from pop art - the style tied to Pittsburgh native Andy Warhol - and folds in pieces of the Penguins’ 60-year history, including the blue color linked to the franchise’s inaugural season in 1967.
According to the team’s media release, the jerseys use layered colors, offset stitching and halftone textures. The crest gets the pop-art treatment, too, while the shoulder patches bring in two familiar Pittsburgh symbols: an igloo for the old Civic Arena and a triangle for the city’s three rivers.
“Hometown Remix builds on that legacy in a fresh and authentic way, celebrating the fans, culture and communities that make each NHL market unique,” said Brian Jennings, the NHL's senior executive vice president and chief partnerships and club strategy officer.
The Penguins will break them out Tuesday night against the Vegas Golden Knights at PPG Paints Arena.
The team also released its Hometown Remix schedule for the 2026-27 season. The full slate includes Nov. 3 vs.
Vegas Golden Knights, Nov. 28 vs. Toronto Maple Leafs, Dec. 6 vs.
San Jose Sharks, Dec. 18 vs. Seattle Kraken, Jan. 21 vs.
Anaheim Ducks, Feb. 2 vs. Tampa Bay Lightning, Mar. 9 vs.
Ottawa Senators, Mar. 25 vs. New Jersey Devils, Mar. 30 at Philadelphia Flyers and April 1 vs.
New York Islanders.
“Hometown Remix represents the most exciting initiative our team has designed and delivered with our partners since we hit the ice with the NHL in 2024,” said Dom Fillion, vice president of creative design for Fanatics. “What makes this program so special is the collaboration with each club and together leaning into the history, culture, fabric and identity of every city and fan base to make sure these felt as authentic and personal as possible.”
Along with the jerseys, the Hometown Remix line will also include headwear, hoodies, T-shirts, fleece and outerwear.

Penguins Add To Blue Line Uncertainty Before Tough Road Stretch
Wilkes-Barre/Scranton made another move on its blue line, recalling defenseman David Breazeale from the Florida Everblades as the organization continues to sort through its depth. Breazeale had been with Pittsburghs ECHL affiliate after appearing in four games for Florida this season, and he is no stranger to the Penguins system after spending time with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton last year.
The timing matters with a tough road stretch coming up, and the recall adds another layer of uncertainty to a defense corps that is already being watched closely. Along with the personnel move, the Penguins also rolled out upcoming game schedules and ticket information, but the bigger question is how this latest shuffle affects the lineup once the team gets back on the ice.

Penguins Need Answers Fast As Another Lineup Shakeup Hits
The Penguins are back at PPG Paints Arena on a night that already feels like a test case for a team still searching for answers. They enter against the Vegas Golden Knights with a difficult record and another round of lineup uncertainty hanging over them, while Vegas arrives off a shootout loss to the Boston Bruins and dealing with its own recent injury-related changes. Pittsburgh will also unveil its Hometown Remix jerseys, adding a little pageantry to a game that otherwise has plenty of pressure attached to it.
In goal, the Penguins have confirmed Arturs Silovs as the starter, a notable call as they try to steady things in net and stop the skid from getting any deeper. Vegas is expected to go with Adin Hill, leaving both sides to navigate a matchup shaped as much by availability as by form. For Pittsburgh, the bigger issue is whether the latest shakeup can produce a cleaner performance before the standings start to tighten even more. [Read more 🡒]
Penguins Rough Start Is Forcing A Roster Debate Pittsburgh Feared
The Penguins first 14 games have already turned into the kind of early-season grind that exposes every roster flaw, and this one has been no exception. With only 12 points in the bank, Pittsburgh has spent much of the opening stretch trying to find the right balance between competing now and developing for later, even as general manager Kyle Dubas heavy investment in forwards has created a crowded depth chart that makes it harder to keep young players in the lineup.
There have been some encouraging signs, with Evgeni Malkin among the players holding up reasonably well, but the uneven production around him has only sharpened the sense that something may need to give. Egor Chinakhov has not given the club the kind of lift it hoped for, and with the standings already looking shaky, the Penguins are drifting toward the sort of roster conversation Pittsburgh expected to avoid this early in the season.
