Confirmed with Link: G Matt Murray is out indefinitely, will be put on LTIR prior to season starting.

I'm predicting the league suddenly has a problem with this

Fortunately for us. He has a long history of being injured

We got a 3rd + 7th for a gamble on a good goalie when healthy... I think this trade worked out beautifully.



Did Treliving injure him?

Wow, a laughable take and a pointless question, all in one post.

Multitasking works for you..

 

[Racer88]

Why would we want him for the playoffs. He's our third best goalie

Maybe4th or 5th

 

[rocketman588]

I'm showing $1,293,950 over with 21 players. Gambrell won't be on the roster.

We need to make one more move. It'll be interesting to see what it is

I assume it'll be one of Lafferty, Timmins, jarnkrok

If we want to get creative and make it work maybe Brodie if we can find a replacement

 

[Menzinger]

Tough break for Murray. I hope he can recover for next season and maybe make a comeback.

He seemed like a nice guy while he was here. Hopefully he can make a career comeback of some sort eventually

He had one month of good hockey. His last 19 starts 12 were under .900 so no he wasn't a good goalie.

If he continued his play instead of being hurt last year he would have taken a first to get rid of minimum. The sabers were also rumoured to have gotten a better deal for him. Murray turned it down and then dubas lost a negotiation where he was the only trade partner because everyone knows he loves Soo players and was desperate for a goalie

It's really hard to predict what will happen at this point. Timmins isn't enough.. and Laff and Jarnkrok are decent value for their price.

We have to see what the situation with Nylander is, and Brodie as well... either, or both of those guys could be on the move, depending on contract status, and the desire to change up the D-core,

I might be wrong but I think Gambrell has a NMC which means he can't be waived?

I don't know. Five concussions in five years and he has made $37M by age 30. Seems like a good time to look into real estate.

 

[Metroid]

The issue is he got a third and a 7 for something that we would have had to give up a first for if Murray stayed healthy but just played how he did in every month but November

If he was healthy we wouldn't be dropping a first to trade him... Lol

No he has a 1 way deal though so he makes NHL money if demoted.

 

[Aashir Mallik]

Well that solves one problem

I think we are still a bit over the cap though, so wonder what happens next

 

[Peace Frog]

The one downside of putting Murray on LTIR, is that we won’t have any room if/when someone gets hurt during the season. That could be a problem, no?

 

[tuckerintensity]

It is refreshing having someone competent running things now.

Did we fire Treliving already?

 

[Jmo89]

I mentioned in the other thread why I thought this could work out for Murray (though I didn't really think it was going to happen.)

In short, he likely benefits more by taking a year off and letting his body heal with access team facilities and doctors, while collecting his entire 6M paycheque. He can probably get a 2-3 year contract next offseason when the cap goes up, rather than risk another injury for league minimum this year and have no offers next offseason.

Very nice.

These guys and their alts have been so consistently wrong about everything Dubas for so long now they don't know how to stop, they just keep digging.
It's sad and hilarious at the same time.

Ok, thanks that makes sense

 

[rocketman588]

He was an .880 goalie for 3 months before the injury and was getting worse. so yeah we would be

This is confirmed by Dubas holding on to his favourite Soo players Campbell and Sandin.

Capfriendly says he has no clauses in his contract
