Because of playing 4 years at North Dakota after getting drafted, as well as becoming a mainstay in the River Rats lineup, it was
a long time before Bombardir joined the Devils. All along, he was best known as a defensive defenseman, but when his
offensive production tailed down compared to when he was younger (I know, it wasn't much of a dip being that he was
consistently a 25-30-point getter.), he became basically just a spare body.
It doesn't hurt to have depth, though, especially when making a run for the Cup like in 2000.
After winning the Cup, Bombardir was traded to the Wild and was a semi-regular in Jacques Lemaire's lineup there. He would
get traded to the Nashville Predators at the deadline in 2004.
Those would be his last games in the NHL, though. He was forced to retire in 2005 after playing his first and only game with the
Springfield Falcons in the AHL... actually, the words I've seen used was "halted indefinitely."
He went back with the Wild after the injury to work in the Community/Players Relations Department.
