Wow, a laughable take and a pointless question, all in one post.

We need to make one more move. It'll be interesting to see what it is
I assume it'll be one of Lafferty, Timmins, jarnkrok
If we want to get creative and make it work maybe Brodie if we can find a replacement

He seemed like a nice guy while he was here. Hopefully he can make a career comeback of some sort eventually

He had one month of good hockey. His last 19 starts 12 were under .900 so no he wasn't a good goalie.
If he continued his play instead of being hurt last year he would have taken a first to get rid of minimum. The sabers were also rumoured to have gotten a better deal for him. Murray turned it down and then dubas lost a negotiation where he was the only trade partner because everyone knows he loves Soo players and was desperate for a goalie

It's really hard to predict what will happen at this point. Timmins isn't enough.. and Laff and Jarnkrok are decent value for their price.
We have to see what the situation with Nylander is, and Brodie as well... either, or both of those guys could be on the move, depending on contract status, and the desire to change up the D-core,

I don't know. Five concussions in five years and he has made $37M by age 30. Seems like a good time to look into real estate.
If he was healthy we wouldn't be dropping a first to trade him... Lol

Well that solves one problem
I think we are still a bit over the cap though, so wonder what happens next

The one downside of putting Murray on LTIR, is that we won’t have any room if/when someone gets hurt during the season. That could be a problem, no?

I mentioned in the other thread why I thought this could work out for Murray (though I didn't really think it was going to happen.)
In short, he likely benefits more by taking a year off and letting his body heal with access team facilities and doctors, while collecting his entire 6M paycheque. He can probably get a 2-3 year contract next offseason when the cap goes up, rather than risk another injury for league minimum this year and have no offers next offseason.

These guys and their alts have been so consistently wrong about everything Dubas for so long now they don't know how to stop, they just keep digging.It's sad and hilarious at the same time.

He was an .880 goalie for 3 months before the injury and was getting worse. so yeah we would be
This is confirmed by Dubas holding on to his favourite Soo players Campbell and Sandin.
