The 2021–22 Pittsburgh Penguins season was the 55th season for the National Hockey League team that was established on June 5, 1967.

On March 27, 2022, the Penguins defeated the Red Wings, 11–2, marking the first time the team has scored 11 goals in a game since November 16, 1993. On April 14, 2022, the Penguins clinched their 16th consecutive playoff appearance after a 6–3 win over the New York Islanders. In the First Round, the Penguins lost in seven games to the New York Rangers despite having a 3–1 series lead. This marked the fourth time the Penguins lost a best-of-seven playoff series after having a 3–1 series lead, and the second time doing so against the New York Rangers. The Game 7 loss marked the first time the Penguins lost a Game 7 on the road in franchise history after going 6–0 the previous six instances.

In the first 64 games, the Penguins were 39–16–9 for 87 points. But, after that, they sagged, going 7–9–2. They also lost an NHL-worst 7 shootouts.

Before the season, the Penguins shipped left wing Brandon Tanev off to play for the Seattle Kraken.
