Lombardi notched two assists, two shots on goal and a plus-3 rating in Thursday's 7-1 win over the Rangers.
Lombardi is up to three helpers over seven contests to begin his rookie year. The 23-year-old forward had added 14 shots on net, eight PIM and three hits from a fourth-line role. Lombardi's potential will be limited in the bottom six, but he has done well with the playing time he's been given so far.

Devils' Amadeus Lombardi: Earns first NHL point
Rotowire
Lombardi notched an assist in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Canucks.
Lombardi signed a two-year contract with the Devils in the summer, though this season is a two-way deal. He earned his spot in training camp and has opened the year as a fourth-line forward, and after setting up a Jesper Boqvist goal Saturday, Lombardi has his first career point. The 23-year-old Lombardi has added five shots on net, two hits, four PIM and a minus-1 rating over four appearances so far. Stefan Noesen was waived Thursday, which is another vote of confidence for Lombardi to stay in the NHL.
