Does anyone think Murray earns a call-up this season? I'm curious as to what our lines would look like with him in over a guy like Sheary.
1st point last night. Played well in the last 2 games.
I think his linemates (Cozens/Okposo) are definitely helping him get more time.Not sure the adjustment from the first recall this season to this one, but he appears noticeably quicker. He was out of position and looked labored the first time, but these last few games not so much. Perhaps it's having someone with Cozens frame taking up time and space for other teams on the back check that gives him time to get back... but he wasn't looking like a sloth in forward gears either.
OT GWG in game 2, OT game winning assist in game 1. Not a bad start to the playoffs for him and his linemates.
I was stalking him on Cap Friendly and what a sneaky little signing by Adams. I know he was a Murray pick but having the patience and giving him a contract has paid off.
He looked a little weird in Buffalo, but I hope he gets another chance.I think it was Elliotte Friedman on After the Whistle who said there has been a few executives in the western conference keeping a close eye on Murray.. Hope the Sabres have plans for him in their future.
I think he needs to find a way to maintain his conditioning during the season. His skating was ok early in the season and just seemed to get slower and slower.If he can add half a step somehow and also continue to find a way to be angry at the other team, he could be a Maroon sort of player. But he needs both of those things, perhaps even more so the anger.
I feel the same way, except I'd love to see Mancari and Murray get some more games with the Sabres.I see him as another Mark Mancari (not in terms of style, but in terms of talent). Fine for the AHL, but I'm fine with him not seeing another game in a Sabres sweater. I just don't see it with him.
