| Murray's future in Boston questionable | Sunday 6/15, 8:50 AM CT |
|
Bruins management, according to the Boston Globe, won't say for the record whether it's time to part company with their 35-year-old right winger, Glen Murray.
"I don't really have a comment," said general manager Peter Chiarelli when asked about the possibility of Murray being bought out. "We have that option with all of our players, and in the [salary] cap world, it's something you sometimes must consider."
Our View:
Murray, dealing with an assortment of injuries, finished with only 17 goals and 30 points in 63 regular-season games - his weakest production in more than a decade. Only underscoring his futility, he then went the Full Thornton (0-0 -0) in six-plus playoff games, exiting early with a cracked rib in Game 7 of the Montreal series. A veteran of 16 NHL seasons, he still has only 20 postseason goals. |
