The Pittsburgh Penguins will wear their popular retro jerseys when they return to Mellon Arena for Saturday night's game against Tampa Bay.

While it will be the first time that the Pens don the powder-blue throwbacks this season, it won't be the last.

The Pens will dress in blue several more times, and all but two of those games are at home.

Here are the dates:

  • Oct. 30 at Columbus
  • Nov. 16 vs. Anaheim
  • Nov. 27 at New York Islanders
  • Dec. 3 vs. Colorado
  • Dec. 12 vs. Florida
  • Dec. 27 vs. Toronto
  • Jan. 5 vs. Atlanta
  • Jan. 28 vs. Ottawa
  • Feb. 1 vs. Buffalo
  • Feb. 14 vs. Nashville
  • March 6 vs. Dallas

The blue jerseys were originally worn from 1968 to 1972. They became popular again when the Pens brought them back for the inaugural "NHL Winter Classic" outdoor game against Buffalo in 2008.
