Confirmed with Link: Douglas Murray Traded To Pitt for 2013 2nd round and 2014 2nd/3rd conditional pick

[Eid Ma Clack Shaw]

Good luck in Pittsburgh Douglas. Will be lots of good memories of him in SJ. But 2(!) 2nd round picks is a steal for the way he has played this year.

 

[Barrie22]

I am so happy right now.

Gonna miss him personally, because he was a great soldier for many years. Destroyed the odds even getting to the NHL, and became an incredibly underrated #3 defenseman for many years. But it's time to move on. The good thing is that I can't stand Pittsburgh, but if they win the Cup I'll at least have someone to cheer for.

murray becomes there gill from 2009-10

 

[SJSharksfan39]

Thank the Lord. I don't care who we got in return. We got draft picks. Again, that's all what counts in my view. Thank the Lord indeed.

 

[SHAR KS]

**** yeah!

 

[Lebanezer]

Great trade. Very pleased with the return.

 

[ChubbChubby]

We just fleeced Pittsburgh. I think most people would have been ecstatic over one 2nd round pick, let alone two.


Happiest two people in this trade are Braun and Demers, or maybe they were hoping they'd get to play with Crosby instead.

 

[glasgow26]

Gonna miss Cranky but this is a great return for a pending UFA who's having a bad year. Hopefully this means more ice time for Demers too.

 

[JayP812]

Great return. Thanks for the memories Crankshaft.

 

[Hatrick Marleau]

DW great move. If Douglas Freaking Murray can get 2 2nds, Clowe can get a 1st+ easily.

 

[Church Hill]

I loved Murray and he brought a lot to this team. He never took a night off, that's for sure, and should be admired for it. I'll root for him in Pittsburgh.

Also, this return is over the top for the Sharks. Two 2nd round picks for a few months of Murray? Wow

 

[TealTownUSA]

thanks for all the memories dougie, but we have to move on

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

2 2nds, not bad

I will say itll be nice to not have to worry bout murray i always felt he played really good against the ducks.

The Sharks got two second round picks but the second pick is conditional if Murray doesn't re-sign with Pens. #NHL

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

Thank. God.

 

[wishman]

Now Garrioch is saying one of the 2nd's is conditional on Murray re-signing. Oh well...

Still happy with one 2nd for him.

Re-sign, Dougie! Help a brother out!

Three people because Irwin will be happy that he gets to stay with the big club and make real money.

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

Morrow and now Murray. Penguins just got a lot slower on the bottom 6 and D.

 

[Debrincat93]

Outsider question, does this mean petrecki might get called up to the show?

Ahh, ok. I'll curb my excitement a bit then, because after the Pens get a chance to watch Murray up close and personal it'll end up being one second rounder.

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

I'm sure the Sharks will get something, even if Murray doesn't re-sign in Pit. Maybe a 3rd or 4th.

 

[Coily]

So this move means we now need a new coach and we're the Kings right?

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Now I really want Douglas to do well for the Pens.

 

[Pinkfloyd]

Re-sign, Dougie! Help a brother out!

Pittsburgh will probably let him walk after they see what he brings. Even so, one 2nd rounder minimum for the guy is still a good deal for someone the team was unlikely to keep past this season.

 

[hockeyball]

Absolutely awesome.

Going to miss Murray, he beat the odds and for awhile there was one of the most fun guys to watch. I doubt we'll have a hitter of his caliber on this team for a long time. Absolutely destroyed people with almost no effort.

One 2nd is more than most expected, 2 is freaking robbery.
