I think Murray has been better than average with moments of "wtf" and to be honest, that's how he's been the two years he's led the Pens to the cup.
This next statement is not directed at you, but hindsight is 20/20. Looking back on Murray's results the last two playoffs overlooks some of his performances. I think he's par for the course right now.
I don't care how good or even great a goalie is, while they can steal you a game or even a series, there are games where they're the ones that need bailing out. - Rinosaur
I don't know his sv% this year has been pretty pedestrian. I'm sure some more in depth analysis on shot qualities might explain that away, but it wasn't like we were playing lock down hockey the past two cup runs either.

Last year was very much live by the sword, die by the sword type hockey. I'm not even looking at his stats though, I'm remember his performances. The incredible saves he made to keep his team in the game.
He did his job last game, let in one stinker, but the Pens are also not getting the scoring they need throughout the lineup which I think is the bigger issue.
Far too many odd man rushes from too much pinching.

You done making fun of people for having had concussions? - Feds91Stammer
Sorry, I didnt realize you actually had one. Wasn't making fun of people with concussions, I was calling out your major uptick in immaturity and wondering if brain trauma was the reason.

He's just being recreationally offended. Don't let that (frank)er fool you.
I find that is the theme for Murray, somewhat how it used to be with Fleury. Make the tough saves and miracle saves and then let in a house league goal.
I am also noticing a lot these playoffs that when you pound pressure in the other teams zone for an extended period of time, it isn't all that rare that it ends up being an odd man rush the other way.
What really surprised me on the winning goal was that they even made that effort. Hats off to them, but after being hemmed in your own zone for 2 hours, I just assumed they would be gassed and dump and change. Where did they find that energy!

Feds can talk good hockey or troll, depends on his mood. He probably just finds it more fun to troll after 2 losses with controversial Wilson hits.
