<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pharrow</b></div><div>The 1st half of the year Murray was one of the most dominate goalies in the league.
The 2nd half...He had Jack Johnson as his 1LD......maybe you can figure it out.
He the same guy that was 7th in save% the year prior with a stellar defense of Jack Johnson, Eric Gudbranson and Justin Schultz.

Let me know how those other 58 goalies would have done with that defense.</div></div>

First 20 games .897 sv%.... You can make up excuses all you want but 1: Jarry completely smoked Murray in every metric, 2: Pit was top 5 in every defensive category, shots against, high danger chances agaisnt, xGA, etc

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pharrow</b></div><div>nope they won't. And he won't sign a 1 year deal. They got cap.
They can pay him almost 4.5 mil if need be and be fine.
They will send him off to Seattle next year.

There are expected to be a lot of back to back games this season, if it takes place. High risk of infection etc... means players could miss time. Having a 1A and 2A in net is fine.
Too many people assume he's already gone.
They fixed their cap issues buying out JJ.

They won't trade him unless they get what they want. It's not even an argument.
Teams are in need of goaltending. The penguins are not in need to move Murray.
They got 1 roster spot that needs filled. 3C. And there are cheap options. Wennberg being bought out is an example of that.
Moving Murray is not nearly as much as a concern as Chicago finding a goaltender.</div></div>



Someone hasnt looked at the goalie market this offseason...

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caerii</b></div><div>Brett Connolly vs Mikael Granlund <strong>Neither player is even going to be in the league at this rate</strong>
Hampus Lindholm vs Jacob Trouba <strong>Lindholm is a lot better than Trouba who has tanked in NY</strong>
Sean Monahan vs Bo Horvat <strong>Look at their careers so far and try again</strong>
Jake Virtanen vs Nik Ehlers <strong>Again Virtananen was a mid first round pick that Benning wanted to take very early</strong>
Pavel Zacha vs Timo Meier <strong>Citing a player taken 10+ spots above where every scouting list had him doesnt make your point correct</strong>
Matthew Tkachuk vs Mikhail Sergachev

Please show me where the separation is</div></div>

See above. When you have to cite a lot of bad reaches to pretend you are right it doesnt really help your point at all.
