Toronto Maple Leafs: Joffrey Lupul Quietly became a Free Agent
Joffrey Lupul is officially no longer a member of the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Joffrey Lupul became an unrestricted free agent July 1st, 2018, officially marking the end of his contract with the Toronto Maple Leafs.
What else happened that day that may have distracted Leafs fans from this? The biggest NHL free agent signing in NHL history, John Tavares coming home to Toronto, probably did it.
Lupul left the Toronto Maple Leafs organization with 182 points (88 goals, 94 assists) in 282 games, spread out over 6 seasons. According to cap friendly, his last contract was signed January 1st 2013, it lasted 5 years at $5,250,000 per season ($26,250,000 total value).
