Signed for 2 years in Pittsburgh at $1.85 million per. Best of luck little buddy.

Good for him. Guy has beaten all the odds since day 1. Mostly likely the smallest guy on the ice for every team he’s played for but he’s willed himself into an excellent NHL career.

 

[JC6388LAKings]

Well, there goes our hard working little guy who ironically showed the most grit for our roster this past season. On the bright side, we've sized up by getting Jeannot.

 

[ICE24]

the heart and soul of a team. He will do well in Pittsburgh, a heck of a player.

 

[ChiKingFan]

Happy. for him. Tough situation, but kinda feel he was close to his ceiling and the Kings have guys that should have higher ceilings, and they’ll never find out without the opportunity. He beat the odds and has carved out a nice little career.

best wishes to Blaze!

Love his game, glad to see him rewarded. Hope he does great in Pitts.

 

[Nyssa42]

Waaaahhhhh!!! My favorite! Hope he has tons of success in Pittsburgh.

 

[JayWells24]

I wish other guys that played for the Kings over the years had the heart of Blake Lizotte. All the best to him.

Good luck Lizotte! He gets to be on a team with Crosby and Malkin, neato.

The kind of player it is impossible not to cheer for... Hope he excels in Pitt- It'd be neat at some point to see him hoist a trophy nearly as big as he is (sorry, one last size joke at his expense - but told from a position of admiration, respect and gratitude for his play).
Go Lizzo go!

While my cat is bigger than him, Lizotte put up a fight similar to my cat every time he stepped on the ice, with almost as much heart.

Well my cats are all actually fat and don't fight they just sit on the couch but still there's a lesson here somewhere.

I’m going to miss the energizer bunny! He’s one of my favs! Good luck as a Penguin!

He had Lappy energy. Always on the losing end, but a never ending appetite for hockey. He's the heart and soul guy every club covets. Will miss him. But he was a weeble wobble. He's the argument for testing Clarke.

Sorry to see him go. I loved his energy out on the ice. But he wasn't much of an offensive producer.

He had Lappy energy.

I miss that guy, though that's when I started watching.
