Per Detroit Hockey Now’s Kevin Allen:
Popular Red Wings center prospect Amadeus Lombardi is a late add to Detroit’s roster for the two-game NHL Prospect Series against the Dallas Stars starting today.
Game 1 is 6 p.m. today at the Centre ICE Arena. Game 2 is Sunday at 2:30 p.m.
Lombardi, who played last season for the Grand Rapids Griffins, replaces Ondrej Becher, a Czech center who played for Prince George in the Western Hockey League last season. The Red Wings drafted Becher 80th three months ago.
Lombardi centers the No. 2 line today. Hunter Johannes is on his left side and Alexandre Doucet is on Lombardi’s right side. Lombardi, 21, posted five goals and 26 points in his first professional season.
