Just won't be able to get as many stations

sorry, I don't really know the answer but I think you should attempt to catch him and put him in some warm water to end his misery

nah, he won't die

next time he molts, he'll grow a new one

Never grab a lobster's antennae. While it will grow a new one, it will always break off. You can't catch lobster that way. If you can't get a good solid hold on its body, there's no point grabbing at all.

The world would be a much better place if it worked that way with the tails too.

Switch to Stone Crab.

Sometimes it takes multiple molts. Follow Walter's advice; don't rip off antennae.

well, at least not just one... you probably need 10 or so to make
a decent bisque
