Fleury, Murphy among Pittsburgh Penguins Hall of Fame Class of 2026
The Pittsburgh Penguins have inducted their 2026 Hall of Fame class, which includes one of the most beloved goaltenders in the team’s history.
On November 14, 2026, the Pittsburgh Penguins inducted Marc-André Fleury, Larry Murphy, Jim Rutherford and the family of Jack McGregor into their Hall of Fame. The ceremony took place at PPG Paints Arena, just before the Penguins faced the Ottawa Senators. This was a highly emotional event for the fans and players alike, with Fleury receiving a unanimous vote for his three Stanley Cup victories with the team.
Larry Murphy, a part of the Penguins' championship teams in the early 1990s, spoke about the unforgettable experience of hoisting the Stanley Cup for the second time and the outpouring of support from the city of Pittsburgh. Jack McGregor's family accepted his posthumous honor, marking the NHL's return to Pittsburgh after a 36-year absence in 1966.
General Manager Jim Rutherford emphasized that Pittsburgh is a true sports town, and being a part of the Penguins was one of his dreams coming true. The induction ceremony was a special "hockey night in Pittsburgh" for fans, who gave a standing ovation to celebrate the achievements of both on-ice legends and the people who helped build the team behind the scenes.
