CHEATERSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

 

[hockeylover]

Kinda makes sense. So many damn concussions.

 

[CH1]

I wish him the best with his new woman

 

[LeafOfFaith]

It’s a cruel, cruel summ-ah.

 

[Cojo]

Thats a relief.... nice to know we wont lose any assets on trying to get rid of him now.

Great call by Dubas on that one.

Cleared to play is not healthy when it comes to conkies. A team's medical staff could shut down any player they wanted to after a half dozen or so.

It is pretty hilarious blatant cheating considering Murray ended the season officially healthy and ready to play.

Nice of him to play ball and tell the league he’s got a headache. Wonder if this is it for him.

There's no way this risk was worth it without max retention and preferably double retention.

But oh well, it's off the books now.

Fwiw....this is only "cheating" if you accept the premise that players should be allowed to say "I'm fine" right up until they're wearing a helmet and drinking out of a straw for the rest of their lives.

The issue here imo is that he was cleared in the playoffs, not that he's been deemed fucked the following July.

 

[Slinger 48]

Well done! Best funny I've seen in a while.

 

[thehabhater]

I hear that he hurt himself texting Nick Robertson.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

It actually somehow reminded me of this scene if you start watching at the 2 minute mark (just for 10 seconds).

Didn't they kind of force this with the threat of buy-out?

You can't buy-out and injured player, so Murray (and the doctors) would have to proove that he's injured in order to go on LTIR and get paid in full.
