Lupul apologizes for 'negative comments' about Leafs on Instagram
Joffrey Lupul is sorry.
The Toronto Maple Leafs winger - on paper, at least - took to Twitter on Wednesday to offer an apology for a since-deleted Instagram comment wherein he claimed the team cheats with respect to failed physicals, and "everyone lets them."

Lupul, as we see, apologized to the media, fans, Leafs management, and players for the "inappropriate response," one offered seemingly out of frustration after not having played for the past year and a half.
He added he will not be seeking a second opinion after failing his physical prior to the open of training camp, but does hope to play at some point in the future.
Lupul can become an unrestricted free agent next summer, at which point he'll be able to sign with any interested teams in the NHL or elsewhere, health permitting.
