Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Nets goal Thursday
Lizotte scored a goal and added two PIM in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Red Wings.
Lizotte has three points over three games since he returned from an upper-body injury. The 28-year-old forward is up to eight points, 33 shots on net, 27 hits, 13 blocked shots, 10 PIM and a plus-3 rating through 30 appearances. Lizotte should continue to see steady time in a bottom-six role and on the penalty kill.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Deals two helpers in win
Lizotte logged two assists in Sunday's 7-3 win over the Blackhawks.
Lizotte saw 15:18 of ice time in the blowout win. The 28-year-old forward was playing for the first time since Dec. 7 -- he missed nine games due to an upper-body injury. Lizotte should be good to handle a bottom-six role after this performance. He's racked up seven points, 31 shots on net, 25 hits, 12 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating over 28 contests this season.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Activated from IR
Lizotte (upper body) has been activated from injured reserve by the Penguins, the team announced Sunday.
Lizotte is ready to return following a nine-game absence due to an upper-body injury. The 28-year-old has five points (three goals, two assists) in 27 games in a bottom-six role, adding 25 hits and 12 blocked shots. That's the role he'll likely return to Sunday against the Blackhawks, assuming he draws into the lineup.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Designated for injured reserve
Lizotte was placed on injured reserve with an upper-body injury Tuesday.
Lizotte registered an assist, two hits and two blocks in 13:59 of ice time against Dallas on Sunday, so it's not immediately clear when the 27-year-old forward was injured. The Penguins had been getting healthy, with Justin Brazeau and Noel Acciari returning Sunday, but suddenly they are thin at forward again with both Lizotte and Evgeni Malkin (upper body) landing on injured reserve.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Deposits empty netter
Lizotte scored an empty-net goal and put three shots on net in Sunday 4-0 win over the Predators.
Lizotte's third goal of the season placed the bow on top of a strong victory for Pittsburgh. Overall, the 27-year-old forward has four points and 24 shots on net through 19 games this season. He is currently behind the scoring pace he held in his first season with the Penguins, when he had 20 points in 59 games a year ago. However, Lizotte is heating up with three points in his last seven games. While his recent offensive output is encouraging, it's best to look elsewhere in fantasy until Lizotte consistently earns more ice time.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Tallies in loss
Lizotte scored a goal on three shots in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Jets.
Lizotte scored for the first time since Opening Night against the Rangers. The 27-year-old forward has been a bottom-six regular in the lineup this season, but he hasn't produced much offense in that role. He's at two goals, no assists, 14 shots on net, 12 hits, eight blocked shots and a plus-1 rating through 13 appearances. Unless his scoring takes off in dramatic fashion, Lizotte is best left on the waiver wire in most formats.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Deposits empty-netter
Lizotte scored an empty-net goal on four shots in Tuesday's 3-0 win over the Rangers.
The Penguins were working on thin margins for most of the game, but Lizotte's goal stretched the lead to 3-0 just 20 seconds after Justin Brazeau potted an empty-netter. While it's a positive sign Lizotte started the year with a goal, he's unlikely to be a regular contributor on offense while in a fourth-line role. He had 11 goals and nine assists over 59 appearances in 2024-25, and that was with a career-high 21.6 shooting percentage, so expect a little regression this season. Lizotte could also be at risk of losing his place in the lineup altogether when Kevin Hayes (upper body) or Bryan Rust (lower body) return from injured reserve.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Will be ready for training camp
Lizotte said Friday that his lower-body injury won't linger, Matt Vensel of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Lizotte missed the last four games of the season with the injury. The 27-year-old had a career-tying 11 goals, as well as nine assists in 59 appearances this season, his first in Pittsburgh after spending the first six years of his career with the Kings. Lizotte has one more season remaining at a $1.85 million cap hit and is eligible for free agency following the 2025-26 campaign.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Not returning this season
Lizotte (lower body) has been ruled out for the remainder of the season, according to Josh Yohe of The Athletic on Thursday.
Lizotte was injured against the Blackhawks on Sunday. He will finish the season with 11 goals, nine assists and 60 hits over 59 games this season, his first with the Penguins after five-plus campaigns with the Kings.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Contending with LBI
Lizotte will not play Tuesday against the Blackhawks due to a lower-body injury, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports.
Lizotte will miss his first game since Jan. 27. It's unclear how long he'll be sidelined for, but his next opportunity to suit up will be Friday in New Jersey. The 27-year-old has chipped in 11 goals and 20 points across 59 appearances in 2024-25.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Scores game-winner Saturday
Lizotte scored the game-winning goal on two shots and blocked three shots in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Stars.
Lizotte scored for the second time in four games, and it came at a clutch moment with 1:43 left in the third period. The 27-year-old forward's tally was his first game-winner and his 11th goal of the campaign. He's reached the 20-point mark while adding 50 shots on net, 60 hits and a minus-4 rating over 58 appearances in 2024-25.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Gets goal Thursday
Lizotte scored a goal on two shots, added two hits, logged two PIM and went minus-2 in Thursday's 7-3 loss to the Sabres.
Lizotte ended a 17-game goal drought with his third-period tally. In that span, he had five assists, seven shots on net, 16 hits and a minus-8 rating. The 27-year-old is typically more of a defensive forward, but the Penguins' center depth has been tested by the absences of Evgeni Malkin (upper body) and Thomas Novak (lower body), allowing Lizotte to see more ice time. For the season, he has 10 goals, 19 points, 47 shots, 58 hits and a minus-5 rating over 55 appearances.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Posts helper in win
Lizotte notched an assist and two shots on goal in Friday's 6-3 win over the Blue Jackets.
Lizotte is up to four helpers over his last four outings, as well as five hits. The 27-year-old is almost exclusively playmaking -- he's in a 15-game goal drought and has mustered just five shots on net to go with five assists in that span. For the season, he's at 18 points, 43 shots on net, 54 hits, 24 blocked shots, 24 PIM and a minus-1 rating over 52 appearances in a bottom-six role, surpassing his 15-point total from the 2023-24 campaign with the Kings.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Supplies two assists
Lizotte notched two assists and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Blues.
The Penguins got some early offense from unlikely sources Thursday, as Lizotte set up goals by Ryan Graves and Connor Dewar. This ended a four-game slump for Lizotte, who has just three assists over 12 contests since his last goal. Still, the team's forward depth is minimal, allowing the 27-year-old to take a third-line role for now. He has 16 points over 49 outings this season, one point better than his 62-game performance from 2023-24. Lizotte has added 41 shots on net, 50 hits, 24 PIM, 23 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating in 2024-25.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Earns helper Sunday
Lizotte logged an assist and two hits in Sunday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Maple Leafs.
Lizotte ended a six-game point drought with the helper. The 27-year-old continues to fill a bottom-six role, either as a center or a winger. He saw 16:44 of ice time Sunday, a season-high mark, which indicates his role could grow down the stretch, especially if the Penguins trade away forwards. Lizotte has 14 points, 40 shots on net, 48 hits, 22 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating through 44 outings overall.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Finds twine Friday
Lizotte scored a goal, had two shots on net and added three hits during Friday's 3-2 win over the Rangers.
Lizotte's tally tied the game at 1-1 at the 2:25 mark of the second period. The 27-year-old forward is up to nine goals, 13 points and 38 shots on net across 37 appearances this season. Friday's goal ended a 16-game point drought for Lizotte. His debut season with the Penguins is unlikely to surpass his career-high of 34 points from the 2022-23 campaign. However, Lizotte is two goals shy of tying his career-best of 11 tallies from that same season.
