  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Back in action

    Lizotte (illness) will return to the lineup Wednesday versus Utah.

    Lizotte will center the fourth line in his return from a three-game absence. He'll be flanked by Bokondji Imama and Noel Acciari, while Philip Tomasino and Matt Nieto exit the lineup.

  • Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Still dealing with illness

    Lizotte (illness) will not be available for Monday's road game against the Sharks.

    Lizotte will miss his third consecutive game Monday. The left-shot forward's next chance to return to the lineup will be Wednesday in Utah, when Pittsburgh concludes its five-game road trip. Lizotte has accounted for eight markers, four helpers and a plus-5 rating across 33 appearances in 2024-25.

  • Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Remains out Saturday

    Lizotte (illness) won't play against Seattle on Saturday.

  • Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Battling illness

    Lizotte will miss Thursday's tilt against Anaheim due to an illness.

    Lizotte has eight goals and 12 points in 33 appearances in 2024-25. His exit from the lineup coincides with Rickard Rakell, who missed Monday's 5-1 win over Los Angeles for personal reasons, returning.

  • Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Tallies late on power play

    Lizotte scored a power-play goal and added three hits in Monday's 7-3 win over the Flyers.

    Lizotte was on the ice on a late power play and cashed in the Penguins' final goal of the game. He's typically not a factor with the man advantage, seeing just traces of time at the ends of power plays to provide a steady defensive presence. The 27-year-old has done well in a bottom-six role this season, logging eight goals, four assists, 19 shots on net, 26 hits, 14 PIM and a plus-6 rating over 20 appearances. He's on pace to return to the 20-point threshold after missing that mark over 62 games with the Kings last year.

  • Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Extends productive stretch

    Lizotte scored a goal in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Senators.

    Lizotte might play in the fourth line, but there's no question the 27-year-old is going through his most productive stretch of the season. He's cracked the scoresheet in six of his last seven outings, racking up four goals and four assists in that span. Lizotte has almost no chance of sustaining this production unless he moves up the lineup, but the 27-year-old is finding ways to make his presence felt more often than not.

  • Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Fills empty net

    Lizotte scored a shorthanded empty-net goal on two shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Maple Leafs.

    Lizotte continues to produce from a bottom-six spot. He has four goals and three assists over his last six contests, and his tally Saturday was his first shorthanded point of the campaign. He has logged multiple shorthanded points in four of the previous five seasons. Overall, the 26-year-old has six goals, three helpers, 16 shots on net, 19 hits and a plus-5 rating through 13 appearances in 2024-25. The Penguins haven't gotten much out of their depth, but Lizotte is a notable exception in that regard.

  • Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Continues to produce

    Lizotte notched a goal and added three hits in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Rangers.

    Lizotte couldn't extend his multi-point streak to three games, but he continues to thrive offensively in recent contests. He has cracked the scoresheet in all but one of his last five appearances, posting three goals and three assists in that span. Lizotte has appeared in only 12 games this season but has been productive. He has five goals, eight points, 14 shots and 19 hits.

  • Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Four points in last two games

    Lizotte had two assists in a 5-4 overtime win over the Panthers on Tuesday.

    Lizotte has four points (two goals, two assists) over his last two games, and he's off to a roaring start with seven points, including four goals, in 11 games so far. Unfortunately, he has fired only 13 shots in those 11 games, and his 30.8 shooting percentage is unsustainable. Lizotte is on a nice run, but it's unlikely to last -- his career-best point total is 34 (2022-23).

  • Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Two-point effort against Flames

    Lizotte scored a goal and added an assist in Saturday's 6-2 win over Calgary.

    After helping to set up Anthony Beauvillier for the game's opening tally late in the first period, Lizotte wrapped up the scoring himself late in the third. Like a lot of Penguins, Lizotte produced his best performance of the season Saturday, and while he's already been sidelined by multiple concussions in 2024-25, the 26-year-old has four goals and five points in the 10 games he's been able to suit up for.

  • Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Scores in return from injury

    Lizotte netted an even-strength goal Wednesday in a 5-4 win over Vancouver.

    Lizotte opened the scoring in the first period Wednesday in his return to the lineup after missing five games due to a concussion. The left-shot center settled in on the third line between Anthony Beauvillier and Drew O'Connor in addition to filling a role on the penalty kill. The 26-year-old Lizotte has three markers but hasn't recorded an assist through eight contests in 2024-25.
