Joffrey Lupul scores twice in his return
Joffrey Lupul - W - Toronto Maple Leafs
March 16, 2013 - 10:40 PM ET

Joffrey Lupul found the back of the net twice in his return to the lineup as Toronto fell 5-4 via the shootout to Winnipeg on Saturday night.

The goals were his first of the season, as this was his first game back since breaking his forearm Jan. 23. Lupul must've been trying to make up for lost time, filling up the stat sheet in this one by getting four penalty minutes, five shots on goal, six hits and a plus-one rating. This type of performance is promising for not just the Leafs, but fantasy owners, too. Nikolai Kulemin and Phil Kessel had the other goals, while Nazem Kadri picked up two assists.
