Lovejoy has been sidelined with a fractured finger since October 26th. He is on IR right now, but with Josh Manson being sent down earlier in the week there is already room on the roster for Lovejoy to be activated. He will be paired with Cam Fowler tonight.
Lovejoy has been sidelined with a broken finger since October 26th. He has started skating on his own and can stick handle a little bit, but still is not expected to return until mid-to-late December.
Lovejoy was reevaluated this afternoon where it was determined that he fractured a finger in a fight with Joe Pavelski. Despite pummelling 'Little Joe' in the scrap, he is the one walking away with the injury and will miss at least a month and a half. Expect the Ducks to recall a defenseman but Mark Fistric should be in the lineup on Tuesday.
Lovejoy broke his hand in a fight with Joe Pavelski in Sunday's penalty filled battle between the Ducks and Sharks. There were 155 penalty minutes handed out last night and despite Lovejoy manhandling Pavelski, he is the one walking away with the injury. Lovejoy was playing 18 minutes a night, so this will hurt the Ducks blueline for likely one month or longer. Marc Fistric will likely be in the lineup on Tuesday.
Lovejoy did not take part in the Ducks' morning skate because of the illness. If he is unable to suit up tonight, Luca Sbisa will return to the lineup after missing Monday's game.
Lovejoy has 25 points in 98 career games, and is on a crowded blueline in Anaheim. He isn't a great fantasy option.
The acquisition is considered a depth move from the Pens who are currently dealing with an injured Fowler. Lovejoy wasn't a major fantasy contributor with the Pens so it is unlikely he will find an offensive stride with the Ducks.
Lovejoy isn't fantasy relevant.
Lovejoy is expected to play on the third pairing tonight.
Lovejoy might be an option to play during round one.
Lovejoy will miss the remainder of the regular season. He scored a goal and five points in 34 games.
Lovejoy is questionable to play tomorrow. He has a goal and five points in 34 games.
Expect Lovejoy to round out the third pairing. He has a goal and five points in 32 games.
It's typical of the Penguins to rotate defenseman during morning skate so we don't know if Lovejoy does indeed play. He has a goal and three points through 27 games.
Lovejoy is once again a healthy scratch. He has a goal and three points in 27 games.
Lovejoy gets into his first game since February 1st. He has a goal and three points on the season.
Lovejoy draws in for the first time since January 17th. He has a goal and three points in 25 games.
Lovejoy is the odd-man out with the Pens blue line fully healthy. He has a goal and three points over 25 games.
With Carl Sneep back in the AHL, Lovejoy figures to play for the Pens tonight. The defensive defender last played on November 3rd.
Lovejoy should be able to get back into the lineup over the next week. He has one assist through 13 games and won't play an offensive role.
