Spin: Cizikas ended his six-game point drought, and this was his first helper since Oct. 26. The 33-year-old continues to play in a bottom-six role, but he's often been on the wing lately rather than at center, though he still takes his fair share of faceoffs. He adds a physical element to the lineup -- Cizikas has just six points this season while adding 120 hits, 46 shots on net, 35 blocked shots and a minus-13 rating over 48 contests.
