Penguins Matt Murray is not the Murray you think you know

When I was young I always wondered why an NHL team didn’t hire an 800lb guy and just lay him in front of the net. The guy wouldn’t need an athletic bone in his body. He would just lay there and the other team wouldn’t be able to score. At the time it seemed like a great idea.

Back in 2016, Jim Rutherford and the Penguins made the right move. They kept two time Stanley Cup winning Matt Murray instead of fan favorite Marc-Andre Fluery. It was a no brainer. It was the correct move at the time.
