Anaheim Ducks general manager Bob Murray resigns, will enroll in alcohol abuse program

Anaheim Ducks executive vice president and general manager Bob Murray resigned on Wednesday, and will enroll in an alcohol abuse program, the team announced.

Jeff Solomon will be the club's interim general manager, replacing Murray, who was placed on administrative leave Tuesday pending "an ongoing investigation related to professional conduct."

Murray, 66, had been with the organization since 2005.

"First and foremost, we apologize on behalf of the organization to anyone affected by misconduct from Bob. We expect every member of our organization to be treated with respect and will not stand for abuse of any kind," team owners Henry and Susan Samueli said in a Wednesday statement.
