Nope, it won't be Lomberg's fault. He's just signing the contract and playing his game. The blame will be on the system where guys with one-way contracts and waiver rules make it harder for young guys to push their way onto the roster.

And the first person that kid should look to, on how to graduate to the NHL, is Lomberg

This is a good point. Lomberg managed to carve himself out an NHL career and get a ring. That is something all young players can learn from and should emulate. Do whatever it takes. So, there is benefit there. Maybe Pelletier and Coronato will learn something from him, if the numbers game doesn't work against them.
