He's been on three NHL teams in his career, traded twice this year before he finally found a home as a late pickup for Vancouver. His reputation as a party boy and his work ethic on the ice was questionable in his last two teams, Montreal and Anaheim. He played for Montreal for 5 and a half seasons before being traded to the Ducks in 2010 and then again two months later to Vancouver at the trading deadline on February 28, 2011. Lappy is known for his agitating, provoking and distracting type of play but has since added fighting to his repertoire this season. Taking advice from Bieksa on how to improve his play this season, he's learned to keep his trash talking to a minimum and let his scoring and fighting talk for him instead. We've already seen both from him this year, scoring goals when needed and standing up for his teammates. I personally love him. Love his smile when he scores and he's always so happy. He's loving Vancouver and I'm glad he's been able to turn his game around as he is looking at having a great season. He's also off the market! Congrats on your engagement, Lappy! Here is your Hump Day Hottie! Enjoy!!
