I dont understand the trend of dislike for Lupul. Hes going to score around 22-25 goals and 22-25 assists. Thats 2nd line production. He plays on the 2nd line. So hes not the best defensively, hes hardly the only winger in the league who isnt.
Take him for what he is, a top 6 offensive forward and leader on our team.
He still provides solid 2nd line scoring and like you said, he's shown to be a solid voice on and off the ice for this team. He hasn't played exceptionally well like he has showed before, but still fairly good right now.
This fan base is very "what have you done for me lately?", so it's no surprise that fans are not happy with his recent production.
He hasn't been the problem, that's for sure.
