A Murray buyout is such a bad use of resources… it’s a 2/3 buyout and you’re even the minute Forsberg tweaks something and you need to sign a pro goalie.

A Murray buyout saves 5M and since we would be carrying 3 goalies without buying him out there is no replacement cost.

Ranking bad

1. White - paid $12.75 for the past three years and barely got $3 million of value. Every year could be covered by replacement $$$ and we owe $15.75 more.

2. Murray - paid $10 million and owe another $15. He’s got a M-NTC and he’s put up a few million of value .

These guys are brutal.

We have paid Murray $666,666.00 per win and an astounding $8,071.03 per save.

We have paid White $637,500 per goal and $250,000 per point on his current contract.

There is once Forsberg tweaks a knee … we’re screwed.
Murray doesn’t help since he will be out with hay fever or sore hair.

How much have we paid White per win? Your stat is useless.

Edit - apologies , they are both useless.

Matt Murray is a flake but a much better hockey player than White. Murray is a starting goalie with head issues, or motivational issues, but White is a non competitive, fringe replacement level player. They are both keen to take the easy way out and collect their zillions.

Parker Kelly is a better hockey player than White. Tierney will (has) have A better career than Mr. Likeable.

Amazing how people love a guy who gets paid $1 million Canadian for an accidental point …

We're screwed with Murray anyway as he would likely get injured again within a few games. As soon as he gets approval to play, we should dump him and not risk another injury.

Dorian said he would be ready 2-3 weeks after season ended, as he wanted to play world championships, but ran out of time. Keeping Murray for 1 more year or 2 start the year, isn’t terrible, since we’re not sure on the other 2 either.

It p*ssed me off to hear him want to play on the world championships after he avoided games all season here … like the home opener cause he had a cold or whatever.

Step in the right direction. The cap savings is nice and there was simply no more room for him anymore. His injury history is another reason. He was average at best when healthy.
