The New Jersey Devils have dealt defenseman Ben Lovejoy to the Dallas Stars in exchange for blue-liner Connor Carrick and a third-round selection in this year's draft, the Devils announced Saturday.
Lovejoy, a pending unrestricted free agent, was in his third season with the Devils. He carries a cap hit of about $2.67 million, according to CapFriendly.
The 35-year-old ranks second in the NHL in shorthanded ice time per game and has chipped in seven points in 51 contests this season.
