Former Bruins Glen Murray

I liked Murray AKA Baby Cam, but no way he was a better goal scorer than Rick Middleton.
Middleton scored over 100 more goals and played almost the same amount of games.

Correct, but they said "The best goal scorer this franchise had between Neely and Pastrnak". Middleton was before Cam

very likable player.
great quick shot.

He was a great leader too. From where I sit (yes I was there all of those years ago) he was well respected by teammates, coaches and guys in stripes. He led many of the pre-game drills.

That was a nice blast from the past. Still have a home Murray jersey that I wear from time to time. I was not a happy camper when the cheapass Bs traded Allison (one of my all time favorite Bs), but I quickly warmed up to having Murray back with the Bs. Always made sure he led the league in goals and Jumbo led in assists in NHL videogames I played back in that time period.

There is someone at many of the Bs home games that wears a #27 Muzz jersey

Great career, personally only really only really followed him during his last tour with the Bruins.

He was great with Thornton, but unfortunately he should have been the next player moved after that whole debacle.

While he had moderate success with Savard, probably would have been more valuable as an asset than what the Bruins did with him.

As others have stated the game passed him by, and his contribution and skating deteriorated near the end and we weren't quite on the upswing yet. IMO probably should/would have been better as a trade asset after Thornton was gone.

This all said, have nothing but respect for the guy.

Ah, I guess that could have been interpreted a couple ways.

One, chronologically, which you are definitely correct.

Or two, skill wise on a list, which is how I initially interpreted it.

I remember the Habs fan's tears on the forums after the Murray goal when Kovalev tried to draw the call and then collided with ( Souray? ). Good times!

Muzz was a great goal scorer. He should have flirted with 450 goals with that shot of his, but injuries in his last few years and retiring at 34 derailed that.
