When he was drafted in Montreal it wasn’t certain where Lambert would be playing in 2022-23. He could play in the NHL with the Jets, AHL with the Moose, WHL with the Thunderbirds or even back overseas. Big Bad Brad as he was dubbed by Nate Schmidt has earned himself an NHL deal although he will begin his North American pro career in the AHL.
