Lomberg missed Saturday's game vs. the Red Wings and was placed on IR on Sunday, meaning he will miss at least the first two games of the week. Moving him to IR and losing Olli Juolevi on waivers opened up two roster spots to recall Spencer Knight and add the recently signed Petteri Lindbohm to the active roster.
Lomberg was a healthy scratch vs. the Blue Jackets but will replace Frank Vatrano in the lineup on Saturday. Lomberg has 11 points (4G / 7A) in 39 games this season while averaging 11:39 TOI/gm.
Lomberg will miss Tuesday's game vs. Ottawa after entering the NHL's COVID-19 protocol. The Panthers will get Anthony Duclair back to help replace Lomberg and will also be recalling Aleksi Heponiemi from the AHL.
Lomberg has not played since the Panthers' season opener but will draw back into the lineup on Tuesday. It's unclear who Lomberg will replace but this is likely a response to Givani Smith's fight with Aaron Ekblad on Sunday.
Lomberg had 29 points (12G / 17A) in 58 games with Stockton (AHL) last season and had a brief four-game showing with the Flames, where he had 17 PIMS. Lomberg is a fourth-line player who could have a spot in Calgary next year after Garnet Hathaway signed with the Capitals this summer.
Lomberg has not registered a point in three games with the Flames this seaosn but has six points (2G / 4A) in 19 games with Stockton.
Lomberg has not drawn back into the Flames lineup after being suspended and returns to the AHL with Jon Gillies coming up from Stockton. Lomberg has six points (2G / 4A) and 12 PIMS in 18 AHL games this season.
Lomberg, who had one assist in seven games with the Flames last season, will replace Michael Frolik on the roster. The 23-year-old has six points (2G / 4A) in 18 games with Stockton this season.
Lomberg, 23, has registered five goals, nine assists (14 points) and 84 PIMS in 36 games with Stockton this season. Lomberg is expected to replace Marek Hrivik on the Flames fourth line.
