The All-Star Game has not been held in various years: 1979 and 1987 due to the 1979 Challenge Cup and Rendez-vous '87 series between the NHL and the Soviet national team, respectively; 1995, 2005 and 2013 as a result of labor stoppages; 2006, 2010 and 2014 due to the Winter Olympic Games; and 2021 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.[31] Pittsburgh has hosted one of the games.

Retired numbers
<templatestyles src="Module:Hatnote/styles.css"></templatestyles>
The Pittsburgh Penguins have retired two of their jersey numbers. Michel Briere's number 21 was removed from circulation following Briere's death on April 13, 1971, but it was not officially retired until January 5, 2001.[126] Mario Lemieux's number 66 was originally retired on November 19, 1997, after his first retirement.[127] The number was unretired when he began his comeback on December 27, 2000,[128] and re-retired on October 5, 2006, after Lemieux announced his second retirement during the previous season.[129] Also out of circulation is the number 99 which was retired League-wide for Wayne Gretzky on February 6, 2000.[130] Gretzky did not play for the Penguins during his 20-year NHL career and no Penguins player had ever worn the number 99 prior to its retirement.[131][132] Lemieux himself confirmed that Jaromir Jagr's #68 will be retired in the future.

Michel Briere Memorial Rookie of the Year Trophy
<templatestyles src="Module:Hatnote/styles.css"></templatestyles>
The Michel Briere Memorial Rookie of the Year Trophy is an annual award given to the player who was the most proficient player on the team in his first year of competition in the league.[134] It is named in memory of Michel Briere, who died in a car accident at the end of the 1969–70 NHL season.[134] Briere himself won the award that season, when it was known as the Rookie of the Year Award. There were no winners of the award for several seasons because the team did not have any rookies who could satisfy the conditions to win the award.
Most Valuable Player Award
The Most Valuable Player Award is an annual award given to the player or players deemed most valuable to the team.[135] The first winner, following the Penguins first season in the League in 1968, was goaltender Les Binkley. Mario Lemieux was voted team MVP 12 times, between 1985 and 2003. Sidney Crosby has won the award five times and Jaromir Jagr has won the award four times. Jean Pronovost and Evgeni Malkin have each won the award three times, while Dave Burrows, Ron Schock and Ron Francis have each won twice.
The MVP has most frequently been a center, who have been selected 28 times. Eleven wingers have been selected, ten of them right wings. A defenseman was selected six times. Three different goaltenders have also been selected.
Players' Player Award
The Players' Player Award is an annual award voted on by the players and given to the player who "exemplifies leadership for the team both on and off of the ice, and who is dedicated to teamwork."[134]
The Edward J. DeBartolo Community Service Award is an annual award given to the player(s) who have donated a considerable amount of time during the season to working on community and charity projects.[136] It is named in memory of former Penguins owner Edward J. DeBartolo, who owned the team from 1978 to 1991.
Defunct team awards
A. T. Caggiano Memorial Booster Club Award
The A. T. Caggiano Memorial Booster Club Award was an annual award given to the player who earned the most votes from Star of the game selections throughout the regular season as voted by Penguins Booster Club members.[136] It was named in memory of longtime Penguins locker room attendant Anthony "A. T." Caggiano.[136]
Aldege "Baz" Bastien Memorial Good Guy Award
<templatestyles src="Module:Hatnote/styles.css"></templatestyles>
The Aldege "Baz" Bastien Memorial Good Guy Award was an annual award given to the player selected by the Pittsburgh chapter of the Professional Hockey Writers Association for his cooperation with the local media.[137] It was named in memory of former Penguins general manager and former player and coach of the AHL's Pittsburgh Hornets, Aldege "Baz" Bastien.[137] The award debuted at the end of the 1983–84 NHL season.
From 1992 to 1996, Molson Breweries sponsored the award, and Disaster Specialists sponsored from 1997 to 1999.
Bob Johnson Memorial Badger Bob Award
The Bob Johnson Memorial Badger Bob Award was an annual award given to the player who, "through his performance on the ice, his character and total dedication to his teammates for the success of the team, shows that every day is "A Great Day For Hockey.""[137] It was named in memory of "Badger Bob" Johnson, who was the team's head coach during the 1990–91 season.[137] It was last awarded in 2002.[137]
