If the team's doctor determines that a player is unfit to play, the NHL CBA section 17.7 allows the player to seek a second opinion from their own doctor. If the player's doctor and team's doctor are unable to agree on whether the player is fit or unfit to play, another doctor (who is independent) is brought in and his/her decision is final.

I am curious if Lupul went through this process or not.

CBA section 16.7 (f) allows the commissioner to investigate any LTIR placements he believes is not being utilized properly.
