Maybe because a majority of the stuff said about Murray by Penguins fans is "smash my head against a wall" level of stupid? There's a thought. The vast majority of criticisms about Murray are absolutely absurd and just comes from Penguins fans being way overcritical of goalies.
Yohe is a beat writer, his job is to report the facts. I don't care what his opinion is, especially when he has a serious problem of pandering to idiot yinzers.

Considering the GM coach some media members and lots of fans have complained about Murray and his consistency i'd say their is lots of deserved criticism to the Pens goalies this year.
Source for the GM and coach?
If you really think that the idiot Pittsburgh media or idiot yinzer fans complaining about Murray means that their complaints are valid, I don't know what to tell you. That's a blatant "appeal to majority" logical fallacy.
Didn't Price play last night? I wonder if Sully was assuming we'd get the backup tonight.
I can't understand playing Murray tonight given his play in back to backs.
Sound like my brother, but he does it for losing at video games, especially if it is against me. He probably went through over a hundred console controllers in his life. No joke.Losing to the Flyers or Montreal legit makes me break things in the house. I don’t care how it’s done, just find a way to win please.
100%I'll be OK with the result either way if they play like they did last night. I really think if they maintain that level of play, they'll get into the playoffs one way or another. Especially if they can play like that and get Latang and Dumo back.
Yeah what is up with the local media dumping on Murray any chance they get?
This is the same group of people that were falling on their knees to praise Yinzer Jesus MAF all the time.
Guess Murray doesn’t smile enough.
No offense to you but I’ve literally heard this exact line over the last several seasons about how the Pens “dominated” that game and they would “win it 9/10 times they played it, but yet they keep losing these games over and over again...
That's weird, I would have sworn he had several bad games.Murray has had 1 bad start in his career in the second start of back to back games, it was a game against Winnipeg last year where he gave up 4 goals on 9 shots. Outside of that, he stopped 28 of 30 shots on April 3rd, 2016 and 28 of 31 shots on April 1st, 2018. This is only his 4th back to back starts in his career.
He doesn't have much of a sample size either against Montreal (only 3 games as well) or in the 2nd of back to back games. To me, this is just playing your starting goalie in a must-win game.
He did. Was planned for him to play both apparently.Didn't Price play last night? I wonder if Sully was assuming we'd get the backup tonight.

Is he as thin as he looks on tv? He looks like a noodle inside of that sweater.Managed to sneak down for warm ups. Bjugstad is a giant
Yeah, I wouldn't count coming in in relief either.He went in on some back to backs after the starter of the 2nd game got pulled, but I wasn't including those games. He got fried by the Hawks in the 2nd game last year after Niemi got pulled, but I have a really tough time criticizing him for giving up 6 goals in 51 minutes after Niemi gave up 4 goals in 9 minutes. I was only looking at games he started back to back, which are very few.
