    I googled and nothing came up. Apparently he collected his paycheck from Terry until June 2020. His Elite Hockey bio ends at 2017.

    Yes, that was the low hanging fruit I was referring to. Just googling it. again hopefully someone can have some deeper resources and sources than I have and find out what exactly he’s doing. I mean… He is a millionaire now so maybe he’s doing nothing 😂

    Tim Murray was a disaster and he did not understand a lot.  I think he works at the new Chick' Filet in Ottawa now.  

    On the topic of Tim Murray… My source isn’t privy to this info but is asking around…

    Someone who has better resources and sources than you or I … 

    Can someone post what Tim Murray is doing now? Honest question.

    My guess? The Avs, who have been traveling, and lost two straight games where they were shut out, picked up a flu virus in an airport or something and the whole team is sick. 

    One thing I hate about flying is I always seems to catch some cold or flu in airports. Maybe the Avs did. 

     

    Or not 

    There is a regimen I do leading up to flying and while I’m on vacation that almost always helps with not catching a cold or sickness while on vacation/traveling. If interested PM me.

  24. DOES ADAMS GET A GOALIE NOW?!

    Thanks for this.  I agree. 

    I should add though, that I think Adams did himself no favor when he failed to get Ullmark signed.  My position going back to Ullmark's final year with the Sabres is that the Thatcher Demko 5 x $5 million deal was the benchmark for getting a goalie like pre-Bruins Ullmark signed long-term. It is, basically, the deal Tristan Jarry got this off-season as well.  All three were basically .911 - .915 goalies (not stars, but upper-mid-level starters) at the time they signed their current deals.  Ullmark, to his full-credit, is benefiting from the team-impact on his #'s.  Had Adams offered Ullmark 5x5 before the end of the 2021-2022 season, I can't imagine that he would have declined. Adams's reluctance to go past 4 years, I think, helped Ullmark decide to test the market and when the Bruins matched our offer he took the opportunity to go to a winning team rather than stay with the Sabres through a rebuild. Make no mistake though, Ullmark at .911 - .915 here, would be plenty good enough. 

    Vanicek, in my opinion, is at least a grade-level below Ullmark, Demko, and Jarry and I'm not convinced he would be better here than the goalies we have on our roster have been. 

    No one would have said a word IF Ullmark went to Boston and was no better than UPL is today, last year or two.. Only WHEN Ullmark started to have a great year, did the “KA screwed up by not keeping Ullmark” rantings start to heat up. Sure maybe  1% of fans thought it was a mistake by KA the day Ullmark chose Boston. But it certainly was not the growing rant that it is today. Hindsight is 20/20 and all that jazz.
