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.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Removed from IR
Lizotte (concussion) was activated from injured reserve Wednesday, per the NHL media site.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Game-time call
Lizotte (concussion) is regarded as a game-time decision for Wednesday's tilt versus Vancouver, per Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff.
Lizotte hasn't been in the lineup since Nov. 13. He has two goals and 13 hits over seven appearances in 2024-25. If Lizotte plays Wednesday, it might be as a member of the third line alongside Michael Bunting and Drew O'Connor.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Upgraded to day-to-day
Lizotte (concussion) was labeled day-to-day ahead of Wednesday's matchup with Vancouver, Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports reports.
Lizotte skated in a third-line role at Tuesday's practice session, which would seem to point to him getting back in the lineup versus the Canucks -- though he technically remains on injured reserve. The acquisition of Philip Tomasino from the Predators will create further competition for lineup spots, so Lizotte is far from a lock for minutes on a nightly basis.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: On injured reserve
Lizotte (concussion) was put on injured reserve Friday.
Lizotte last played Wednesday, so this move can be retroactive to that date. Pittsburgh activated Matt Nieto (knee) off injured reserve in a corresponding move. The 26-year-old Lizotte has two goals, 13 hits and four blocks in seven appearances in 2024-25. When he's healthy, Lizotte will be back in the mix for a spot on Pittsburgh's fourth line.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Diagnosed with concussion
Lizotte suffered a concussion against Detroit on Wednesday and won't be available for Friday's matchup with Columbus, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports.
With the Penguins heading into a back-to-back, Lizotte shouldn't be expected to face the Sharks on Saturday either as he clears the league's concussion protocols. Unless Matt Nieto (knee) is finally cleared to play, it figures to be Vasily Ponomarev who steps into the lineup in Lizotte's stead. With injuries pilling up and the trade of Lars Eller, Pittsburgh finds itself somewhat thin down the middle outside of the two-headed monster.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Exits after puck to face
Lizotte (face) won't return to Wednesday's game versus the Red Wings.
Lizotte took a puck to the face in the first period and was bleeding heavily as he came off the ice. He joins a growing list of injured forwards for the Penguins, and the team may need to call up a player if Lizotte can't suit up Friday versus the Blue Jackets.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Tallies lone goal in loss
Lizotte scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 5-1 loss to the Hurricanes.
Lizotte's goal in the third period ended Pyotr Kochetkov's shutout bid. With two goals over four games this season, Lizotte has added a bit of unexpected depth scoring from the fourth line. He's produced four shots on net, 10 hits, three blocked shots and a plus-1 rating. The Penguins have frequently shuffled their lines looking for chemistry, and if Lizotte continues to play well, he may be due to move up the lineup.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Ensures win
Lizotte scored an empty-net goal in Saturday's 3-1 win over Montreal. He finished with one shot, one block and two hits.
Lizotte, playing just his second game following a stint on injured reserve due to a concussion, iced the Canadiens with the tally. Montreal had made it a one-goal game earlier in the third period and were pressing for the equalizer. Lizotte, who signed a two-year deal with Pittsburgh during the offseason, has opened his career in the Steel City centering the fourth line.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Off injured reserve
Lizotte (concussion) was removed from injured reserve Thursday, per Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports.
Lizotte was considered a game-time decision for Thursday's game against Anaheim, but this seems to suggest that he's ready to play. The 26-year-old is projected to serve on the third line alongside Kevin Hayes and Anthony Beauvillier. He hasn't played yet in 2024-25, but Lizotte recorded seven goals and 15 points across 62 regular-season outings with the Kings in 2023-24.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Game-time decision Thursday
Lizotte (concussion) will be a game-time decision versus Anaheim on Thursday, Wes Crosby of NHL.com reports.
Lizotte suffered the concussion during a preseason game versus Ottawa on Sept. 29 and has yet to see any action this season. He was cleared Thursday for full contact, the first time since he was concussed. The 26-year-old had seven goals and 15 points in 62 regular-season games with the Kings in 2023-24.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Placed on IR
Lizotte (concussion) landed on injured reserve Monday.
Lizotte's designation for IR shouldn't come as a surprise considering he is out indefinitely after sustaining a concussion. Even once medically cleared, the Minnesota-born winger is far from guaranteed a spot on the Penguins' roster and could find himself heading down to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton.

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Suffers concussion

Penguins' Blake Lizotte: Inks two-year contract
Lizotte agreed to terms on a two-year, $3.7 million deal with the Penguins on Monday, Matt Vensel of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Lizotte saw his production dip last year, as he tallied just 15 points in 62 regular-season contests with the Kings. Both Lizotte and the Penguins will be hoping for a bounce-back year by the 26-year-old forward. For now, Lizotte will likely slide into a third-line role, possibly playing with fellow new addition Anthony Beauvillier, but he could challenge Drew O'Connor and Michael Bunting for a spot in the top six.
