Do you know the most frustrating part of these goalie conversations that litter Penguins talk? The people who whine about goaltending never mention what guys like DeSmith and Murray are making, which 100% matters. If Murray and DeSmith were getting paid like $9 million combined, some of the things said in here would be more valid. But on their current pay levels? It's ridiculous.
Holding Murray to the standard of "Vezina caliber" when he makes $3.75 million is absurd. That's demanding Murray to be a $7-8 million goalie when he's making half of it, only to get pissed when he doesn't hit that. It's absurd and completely unfair towards Murray. Yet you still people calling him a bum despite him being one of the best cost effective starters in the NHL.
