Joffrey Lupul

I hope we can trade our pick + schenn for (hopefully) Edmonton's number 2 overall pick.  Edmonton would probably make that deal.

I'm thinking no but it depends...have they watched him play in the last month or so?  Then it would be a definite no.

Joffrey seems to have gotten himself into a little spot of bother on twitter.

To anyone who actually takes issue with that he did, get a life.

You tease.

I have no problem with what he did. I do, however, take issue with what she did. That was a private conversation she chose to make very public.

Yeah, I mean everyone has things they don't want to make public. Nothing wrong with that, but I do find it ridiculous that some people view him as some kind of a scumbag now.
 
Could be photoshopped for all we know.

But I don't even care.  If true, it sounds like someone purposely trying to set him up to embarrass him. 

As long as he plays well on the ice, he can DM requests to me for all I care.

To be fair, if he wants them of you he can DM any of us, we all still have the copies you sent us.

Seriously. He's a 28 single male athlete - not exactly the type of people that are well known for their maturity. Anyone who is surprised here or is vilifying him is just purposely ignoring the reality of the situation.

I used my powers of investigation, and the gist is (and this was confirmed by the woman herself on twitter): she sent some scantily-clad photo to Lupul and said if you follow me on twitter I will send you....well you can guess the rest.  Then just tried to embarrass him.

But I'm still not convinced it's not photoshopped, because Lupul's picture on twitter is from the NHL awards and the one in the photo going around is his old one. 

This is what happens when this site goes down.
 
I can't believe that you guys are letting him off the hook here. Pro Athletes are role models to millions of kids out there. New forms of media allow more direct communication with the public and it's incumbent on players to behave themselves in a manner that doesn't send a bad message and represents the organization in the best possible light. A pro athlete looking for cheap sexual thrills with loose women? When I heard the news I dropped my monocle I was so shocked.

I like the one with him in bed with a goat the best.

I was buying it until the monocle.  Well done! :)
 
Ok, so I took a quick look at a couple of articles to determine the content.  Is the extent of the story that Lupul asked a girl for some pictures over the internet?  Really?  How can that even make the news?

Not many people know this but Leafs nation was founded by a rogue offshoot of the Mayflower Puritans who were disgusted by the rampant bare visor area the other colonists allowed.
 
I'm not sure if this is appropriate for the boards, so mods, feel free to take this down if it goes against the "personal lives" policy, but the girl making the accusations is pretty trashy...she apparently "ran the gauntlet" of draftees on the night of the draft...and then the next day posted names, pictures, and screenshots of their texts with them asking for liquor, etc.

http://www.crossingbroad.com/2012/06/these-soon-to-be-nhl-draft-picks-were-eager-to-get-drunk-and-screw-before-their-big-day.html

Also, she made the same offer to Giroux and Richards as she did to Lupul...once he bit, though, she deleted her tweets to the other 2.

This is very cold and calculated.  She WANTS this kind of attention...

again, mods, feel free to delete if deemed inappropriate...
