Penguins' Lovejoy enjoys physical Game 1

Defenseman Ben Lovejoy got knocked around some in his own end in his first NHL playoff game. He did some knocking back, too. "That was by far the most physical game, from a hitting and grinding standpoint, that I've ever been a part of," Lovejoy said. "That was fun. In front of the net, it was a battle.

The Pens also signed defenseman Ben Lovejoy...
