I don't think he gets mentioned enough.
He was a bit of a polarizing player when came over in the Beauchemin trade.
I felt like many others that he was a stop-gap forward (a short-term reclamation project), and would likely not last. He had a litany of injuries and he bounced all over the league.
I was really surprised by his turn around and his all star appearance, but couldn't believe the contract he got. In his career he had 2 seasons where he actually played 81 games, but for the most part he missed a lot of hockey. For some reason Nonis ignored that and awarded him a 5x5.25mill with a NTC.
We all know how badly things went in his final 5 years not to mention his social media rants that got him no where.
Were you ever a Lupul fan?
