Panthers' Ryan Lomberg: Supplies rare helper
Rotowire
Lomberg added an assist in Saturday's 8-4 win over the Avalanche.
Only four Panthers forwards failed to record a point in this high-scoring affair, and even Lomberg, who has just two goals and an assist through 39 games, joined in on the fun. Still, he's more of a utility winger who has mixed it up with 62 hits in a bottom-six role.

Panthers' Ryan Lomberg: Opens scoring Tuesday
Rotowire
Lomberg scored a goal, levied two hits and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Sharks.
Lomberg's two markers this season have come over the last five games. The 28-year-old winger remains a fourth-line fixture for the Panthers, but he's been more physical pop than scoring threat. He's added 26 hits, 20 shots on net and a plus-4 rating, so his fantasy value is low even in formats that reward his toughness.
