The Pittsburgh Penguins will begin the 2012-13 regular season Saturday, Jan. 19, by visiting the Philadelphia Flyers in a nationally-televised NBC game at 3 p.m. at the Wells Fargo Center.

The following night the Penguins will face another division rival when they take on the New York Rangers at 7 p.m. at Madison Square Garden. That marks the first of seven back-to-back situations the Penguins will face this season.

Pittsburgh will play its first home game of the year on Wednesday, Jan. 23, when it hosts the Toronto Maple Leafs for a 7 p.m. contest at CONSOL Energy Center.
