In 2002 Lojek moved to North American and joined the Brampton Battalion of the Ontario Hockey League. He was in his first season with Brampton when the Florida Panthers selected him in the fourth round of the 2003 NHL Entry Draft with the 105th overall pick.[1] He spent two more seasons in the Battalion, totalling only five goals with 42 assists in 191 contests.
Lojek made his pro debut during the 2005–06 season with the ECHL's Florida Everblades (45 games, three goals, 11 assists), later getting promoted to the AHL Rochester Americans (15 games, one goal, one assist).
In 2006–07, Lojek spent most of the season with the Americans (69 games, six goals, 13 assists), earning a three-game callup to the Panthers in February.[1] He scored his first NHL point in his third and final game of the season, an assist in a 5–2 victory over the Phoenix Coyotes. He also logged a plus-3 rating in the game.
Lojek spent the balance of the 2007–08 season in Rochester (72 games, six goals, five assists). He earned a two-game callup near the end of December, registering a minus-1 rating and not impacting the scoresheet in any other way.[1]
From 2008 to 2014 Lojek played in the Czech Extraliga with HC Oceláři Třinec, HC Moeller Pardubice, and Piráti Chomutov.
