[BK]

What is made up?

Mark Madden said Hawks offered 5 x 5 and when it comes to Pens he has track record of some accuracy

[Blackhawkswincup]

Dont have a link as he said it on Pittsburgh radio

Here was his tweet after news broke about contract impasse


Pan fan mentioned what was said on radio about 5 x 5M deal being offered

Stan offered him 5x5 and he said no?

LOL we offered him a 5x5????? Thats disgusting.

Murray has swung from overrated to underrated around HFBoards.

He's still a pretty good goalie, and he's young. 26 years old. That's how old Crow was when he had his first reason season in 2011. Murray at 26 has 2 Stanley Cup runs and 200 plus games of experience under his belt.

I'd frankly be down to see what he could do with Waite coaching him. If Waite could make Darling competent, he has plenty of clay to mold with Murray, who has far more talent and a better baseline of technique.

That said, I don't think they'd be able to get Murray at the price they need. But would be worth circling back if he's not scooped up immediately in free agency.

Agree with the bolded for sure.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Well Madden was 100% right

Murray was asking for absurd contract from Hawks

Apparently it wasn’t nearly enough.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Sens also gave him a NTC

 

[TLEH]

Thats a disgusting contract. I don't doubt for a minute we offered 5x5 now.

Stan Bowman "so we'd like to acquire you Matt how much we're looking for?"
Matt Murray "so I'm thinking $6 mil..."
CLICK!

Stan...'That's not enough'.

Matt Murray "so I'm thinking $6 mil..."
CLICK!

Stan offered 5 years instead of 4 years...the total dollars of contract are the same, the only difference is years...fire stan

 

[Crow]

Don’t understand why we wouldn’t offer crow 2x4.5 if they offered Murray 5x5.

I thought the whole reason for not signing crow was cap space. Apparently not.

if you want to tank, tank. Don’t sign Murray for 5 years five million for the chance he might be good in year 3.

 

[Callidusblackhawk]

Well apparently I was wrong about Murray being crazy seeing as how he got an even better contract today than the rumored 5x5. Wack

 

[HawkeyTalkMan]

Stan was smart here to walk away on a laughable contract ask on top of needing to give away high assets for him

 

[Any Colour You Like]

Absolutely not on that Matt Murray deal. Oof.
