Injury Report: Joffrey Lupul (Grade 2 Groin Strain)

[Glenn Isildur Healy]

So Lupul for Team Canada?

 

[LeafsMonster]

His injuries are starting to piss me off now. They're so often its annoying. Obviously though can't really fault the player. Hope he's okay and its not too serious.

 

[CanadasTeam]

Like i said during the game thread.

Lupul is not injured. He got tired of the crap display put on by the leafs, so he decided to hit the showers early and show off his Body to the HBO cameras

 

[Phion Keneuf]

Lupul can go **** himself. Completely useless player made out of sugar glass. The guy should just take up a paper route or something. Though I'm sure he'd get a paper cut and lose a finger.

Completely useless as in our 2nd best player? Sure

Try again. Lupul is not even close to being our 2nd best player

Kessel
Phaneuf
JVR
Reimer
Bernier

Is that list in order?

 

[Glenn Isildur Healy]

Pretty much.

Reimer and Bernier are equal IMO

 

[LeafsNation75]

Hopefully it's that bad and he can play on Wednesday. If not I guess Carter Ashton replaces him in the lineup?

 

[Derek Synak]

Lupul is just being Lupul.

He's 60 game player, but will produce a good ppg for those games.

Abbott for me.

Oh look the porcelain doll is injured again.... color me shocked Let me guess he was tugging a little bit too hard using the rightie in te bathroom lol.

 

[Disgruntled Observer*]

Remember everybody...
as I've been told hundreds of times by my fellow leaf fans...
Lupul isn't "injury prone", he's "unlucky prone".

Like there's a difference.

Anything that makes my fellow leaf fans feel better I guess.

 

[legendinblue]

Is this guy serious?

[TmlHockeyFan]

........... injury-prone.................

 

[Kurtz]

Forsberg, Jagr, Mario, Lindros, in their primes...

If we had any of those injury-prone stars, you lot would be running them out of town.

 

[Fabulous]

Pulled his groin, not sure how severe it is...

 

[Al14]

As much as I really like Lupul, when he's on his game, we just can't seem to count on him staying in the lineup for any extended amount of time.

It just may be time for Nonis to see what he can get for Lupul before it's too late to get anything.

It's not a matter of running Lupul out of town, it's a matter of acquiring good value for an asset that you just can't count on for any extended amount of time. It's called asset management. If we can get a younger, more durable player, and, maybe a draft pick, it should be a least considered IMHO.

 

[Chandrashekhar Limit]

His constant injuries result in a continuous showcase of our AHL talent. As long as Lupul plays 50+ reg season games, and all of the playoffs, I don't really care. It keeps the younger guys on their toes.

This is the reality of having the guy. Might as well accept it. At least he's making chump change compared to the market value for PPG players.

 

[Metal God]

Players don't sneeze around Lupul. It would probably put him on IR if the sneezed in his direction.

[Wendelstache]

He's plagued with the Tim Connolly/Carlo Callaoicovo disease
