Is Joffrey Lupul a candidate for the most fragile player in the NHL?

I'm a Leafs fan but good god that guy is a porcelain doll, he couldn't stay healthy if he tried! Biggest waste of a contract, guy is making $5.5M/5 years and yet he barely plays 1/2 a season, as skilled as he is I wouldn't want him on my team.

Most of his injuries have been freakish; I'd say he has bad luck more than anything (he got hurt last year when a shot hit him in an unprotected spot on his arm; he hurt his foot when he wasn't using shot-blockers on his skates).

I'll take the guy who, in 132 games as a Leaf, averages just under .9 PPG (.894). That's Lupul.

Having seen both, I liked Beauchemin but right now I just don't have any confidence in Carlyle to use the guy correctly (he's getting significantly better goaltending than Ron Wilson did and putting up roughly the same record in terms of points- people forget that Carlyle's record was a whopping 2 points better than Ron Wilson's the year prior after 48 games).

So I'll take Lupul. 132 games as a Leaf is a solid sample size. If he plays 60 games a year that gets you 53/54 points. Pretty solid body of work.

Probably..
