I wouldn't mind waiting another week or two for his return. Let him rest and be back at 100%.
Do you honestly think Joffrey is going to want to miss more time when the doctors say he's PERFECTLY FINE to play?
Look at all the things he's been through in his career... And all the time he's even missed this season... ALL the man wants to do his just play some hockey, he knows he is a big part of this team and he absolutely loves it...
LUPUL COMES BACK THE SECOND HE CAN, the man loves playing hockey way too much not to..
I'm going to the Leaf vs Islanders game on Thursday. I really hope I see him at that game!
agree with most posters, we should hold him out until the playoffs. make sure he is 100% and not coming bat @ 90%. we really don't need him for the final few games.
After missing a few weeks he is going to need a couple games to make sure he is back up to speed. I can't wait to see him back in the line up!
It took him all of one shift last time
Disagree. We are still playing for playoff position which is important too.
Same amount of people that every other team has rested?Who will be rested once we we clinch? Just wondering.

He can love it all he wants but the coaches make the decision, and the right decision is giving him another few weeks and not risking anything for the playoffs, what really matters.
