4 DAYS AGO • NHL.COM

Fills empty cage Cizikas scored an empty-net goal and added four hits in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Golden Knights.

Impact Cizikas has three goals over his last six games after a stretch of no points in 23 contests. The Islanders have dealt with a couple of injuries up front, and Cizikas is likely to play on the wing at least as long as Hudson Fasching (upper body) and Simon Holmstrom (upper body) are out. Cizikas has just four goals, one assist, 36 shots on net, 91 hits and 29 blocked shots over 41 appearances, so he's unlikely to be under consideration for most fantasy managers.

Islanders play the Penguins after Lee's 2-goal performance

The New York Islanders visit the Pittsburgh Penguins after Anders Lee scored two goals in the Islanders' 6-3 win against the Pittsburgh Penguins

DECEMBER 29, 2024 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Ends slump with big game Cizikas scored twice, levied four hits, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Penguins.

Impact Cizikas entered the holiday break in a 23-game drought on offense. He broke the slump in a big way, tallying the game-winning goal at 9:39 of the second period, and he also had an insurance goal in the third. The 33-year-old fourth-liner doubled his season point total to four through 36 outings, and he's added 30 shots on net, 81 hits, 26 blocked shots, six PIM and a minus-10 rating.

In midst of long scoring drought Cizikas has not recorded a point in 23 straight games after being held scoreless in Monday's 7-1 loss to the Sabres.

Impact Cizikas' value typically doesn't come from offense, but this is a long drought for any player. In that span, the bottom-six forward has 51 hits and a minus-8 rating. Cizikas has been a key part of the Islanders' fourth line for years, but with just two points to go with 77 hits, 28 shots on net and a minus-12 rating over 35 appearances, he's tracking toward one of the worst seasons of his career.

Good to go Cizikas (undisclosed) will play Tuesday versus Montreal, according to Andrew Gross of Newsday.

Impact Cizikas will be good to go despite missing Tuesday's morning skate. He has contributed one goal, two points, 19 shots on net, 23 blocked shots and 53 hits across 25 outings this campaign.

Game-time call Cizikas (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision for Tuesday's matchup against Montreal, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.

Impact After participating in Tuesday's practice, Cizikas was absent from Monday's morning skate. Jean-Gabriel Pageau (lower body) will also be a game-time call versus the Canadiens, but he is seemingly on the more probable side of playing following a two-game absence. If Cizikas sits out Tuesday's game, Pierre Engvall may play, or the Islanders could go with 11 forwards and seven defensemen.

Scores in loss Cizikas scored a goal in Sunday's 5-2 loss to the Rangers.

Impact Cizikas got his first goal of 2024-25 at the 4:38 mark of the second period after Igor Shesterkin misplayed a long shot by Pierre Engvall. The 33-year-old Cizikas has two points through 12 outings this season. He won't produce much offensively but can top 160 hits if he stays healthy.

Gets on scoresheet with helper Cizikas posted an assist and four hits in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Panthers.

Impact Cizikas is a bottom-six mainstay for the Islanders, but that hadn't come with much offense prior to Saturday. The 33-year-old got on a scoresheet following a move to the wing on the third line. The natural center has added five shots on net, 19 hits, seven blocked shots and a minus-2 rating through eight appearances. Cizikas is more valuable on the ice than in fantasy, though he can chip in above-average production for a forward in hits and blocks most of the time.
