I need to approach life the way Lizotte approaches a forecheck
😶
I love this team… Didn't understand wanting to tank at the end of last year, I certainly do not get it now 🤘🤘
I’ve been saying it all season. Lizotte is this teams unsung hero. I’m surprised LA let him go.
Wither Letang, indeed. Get stuffed, Dan. 😂
You have to swarm. Even when you don't think you need to swarm. Swarm. 🐧🏒🖤💛
Lizotte " invisible " leader
These refs are ruining hockey for me. Sure we won but they tried their damndast to make us lose. Getting sick of playing against 2 teams every game. Betting has ruined football and basketball already. Apparently hockey is next.
I had this feeling that Lizotte would be the topic in today's Daily Shot. 😄
I like what St Ivany's been doing but he should be a healthy scratch for one game after that stupid penalty. Almost cost the team the game and for literally no reason. But the boys are absolutely buzzing and you love to see it
arty party!
RIP Macdonald
Great start to 2026! Winning is fun, keep bringing the swarm, #LetsGoPens!
DK your ability to turn a phrase is usually impeccable. But how can you have this pitch buzz by you every day? You know what phrase perfectly describes Lizotte and the way this team should play? Buzzing… like bees around a hive!! I think of that phrase every time I watch Blake play. Great game last night, the team is hopefully getting healthy at the right time.
They're Penguins, but they look and need to act like Bees.
I normally hate when people complain about referees, but holy hell.
Let's see what this team is made of on Sunday. In Detroit and now playing a team that is not playing the 2nd half of a back to back like the Pens last 3 wins. I hope this winning streak is not a mirage
Yes DK, we need to tank. We need high end talent more than a token playoff berth. They are amassing solid talent, but to get back to true contention, they still need franchise level talent.
With the way sports is going now, has anyone looked into St Ivany putting a cash bet on the pens blowing a third period lead?
Somewhat of a different style of player, but the energy Lizotte brings night in and night out is very reminiscent of Branon Tanev. Plays way bigger than he is and just a tenacious, unrelenting forechecking nightmare.
The way the Pens have been run the last few seasons, Lizzotte may go on the block for being a good player. Pens are addicted to shedding players who work hard.
Yea any Pens fan that still thinks we should tank is about as brain dead as they come. And not a true fan!
EK is on the ice for more goals against. That doesn't merit praise from me.
Thank you DK. Great way to ring in the New Year. Winning against the best teams. Lizotte once again scored, The overtime goal happened fast by Letang. I just makes me think a little more. Great show DK
Pens were called for looking sideways at someone, and the redwings got away with murder. Otherwise this game is over in regulation. Piss poor officiating.
Lizotte is a madman on the ice! I love it! Keep it up guys!
