Jeremy Lauzon News: First point since return

Lauzon notched an assist and two hits in Saturday's 6-5 shootout loss to the Avalanche.

Lauzon picked up his first point in five games since returning from an undisclosed injury that cost him a month of action. The 28-year-old has played regularly in the absence of Shea Theodore (upper body). Lauzon is at five assists, 18 shots on net, 72 hits, 35 blocked shots, 37 PIM and a plus-3 rating over 22 appearances this season. While his physicality has some value, his propensity for bad penalties could see him slip into a part-time role once Vegas is at full health on the blue line.
