Was it his fault being bad this year or was it because other teams improving around him and his team becoming slower.
Holly overpayment Batman for a guy who hasn’t even played a game in front of a potentially weak defensive and inexperienced team yet
If Murray can get some help from Ottawa's defense, then this is a good deal for the Sens I think. Just look at the NYI, if your team plays solid defensively, you can put almost any competent goalie in and you will do ok. If you have your goalie facing constant breakaways and 2 on 1's, then even a great goalie is going to get lit up a lot. It's easy to forget that Murray is still young, only 26, so it's not like he's in his mid 30's finishing out his last contract. The price might be a little high, but I don't think this is an outrageous overpay by the Sens, and it has potential to really improve the team. I usually make fun of the Sens, but they have a lot of positives going for them right now after a good draft. I think adding Murray is a positive overall. Hopefully the owners/management don't screw it all up.
Winner for Ottawa
I'm good with the deal and as a Sens fan it is nice to see someone actually want to play in Ottawa. Let's hope it's a sign of good days ahead.
the flower carried murray after flower left ,murray couldnt win on his own to win the stanley cup
I think he's perfect for Ottawa. Money is kinda irrelevant for Ottawa right now. Actually nevermind money is never irrelevant for Ottawa.
Too. Much. Money.
Can't wait to order a StutzMeister black jersey! Love the rebrand and new era Sens
Nice cat dude
this better not be a Dominick hasek situation
Will they go hogberg or Nilsson as backup
I’m perfectly fine with this contract. May be a bit much money but he’s only 26 and could still have some solid years to come and he can grow with the team! Happy to have him here!
Ottawa is lucky he wanted to be in that town.. Because being traded before signing he could have said 10 million dollars or let him hit the open market. For 5 elsewhere. Ottawa took a risk.
i can remember they let fleury go in the expansion draft as Murray was the goalie of the future but was an awful short future…now he is gone…
Thats probably why he bought those white pads
Cuz he knew he was done with pit lol
I like Murray, but if he's still inconsistent and injury prone Ottawa will regret it. He's got the ability to be very good, so I guess we'll see what happens.
I think this change will help Matt Murray. Ottawa’s defense will get better. Plus the Sens defense is younger. Despite how bad things were in Ottawa. They never really lost badly. They were competitive and the future looks great.
Murray was strong enough to lift the cup twice, think he can handle people calling him washed up and overrated just fine 😏
1 year later it looks like it wasn't the smartest deal for Ottawa, but they may benefit from backing out of it.
