FAQ
Canadiens vs Penguins questions
How often do the Canadiens and Penguins play each other?
The Montreal Canadiens and the Pittsburgh Penguins meet three times every regular season. Every club plays each conference opponent outside its own division three times — twice in one arena and once in the other, with the extra home game alternating between seasons.
Are the Canadiens and Penguins in the same division?
No. The Montreal Canadiens play in the Atlantic Division and the Pittsburgh Penguins in the Metropolitan. Both divisions sit in the Eastern Conference, so this is a conference game between clubs from different divisions rather than a division rivalry.
What is at stake when the Canadiens play the Penguins?
A win is worth two points in the standings, and a loss in overtime or a shootout still earns one — so a game that goes past regulation puts three points on the table rather than two. The Canadiens and the Penguins are both Eastern Conference clubs, so beyond the division places they are chasing the same two wild-card spots, which are decided across the whole conference. A result here moves both sides of that race at once.
Can the Canadiens and Penguins meet in the playoffs?
Yes. Both clubs are in the Eastern Conference, and the playoffs stay inside each conference until the Stanley Cup Final. Because the first two rounds are bracketed by division, the usual place for a Atlantic–Metropolitan series is the Eastern Conference Final — earlier only when one of the two enters as a wild card placed in the other’s division bracket.
Where can I follow the Canadiens and Penguins for the rest of the season?
Each club has its own Kalshi team page with its schedule, form and futures prices, and every Canadiens and Penguins game Kalshi lists has a market page with the moneyline. The NHL standings, schedule and Stanley Cup odds pages cover the rest of the league, and the matchup index carries every other pairing the Montreal Canadiens and the Pittsburgh Penguins are in.
