North Buffalo Posted December 12, 2023 Report Share Posted December 12, 2023 (edited) 48 minutes ago, Norcal said: Big Murr needs to play bigger if he's to stick around and be useful. He doesn't have to fight but he needs to finish his checks. He doesn't have to score but he needs to go to the front of the net and be hard to move. He needs to be hard on every puck and play like this is his shot because eventually he's going to be out of them. Agreed but I wondering if Sabres are giving up on him... based on what Ive seen of him both in Rochester and a few games up im not sure he will ever be the above...

Walking away from a 25yr old AHL tweener I wouldn't call "giving up on him" to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's sitting squarely in no man's land I think. Unless he just suddenly takes off I fear he'll be a one year at a time AHLer somewhere if not here. He does show some ability to play in the A.

DarthEbriate Posted December 12, 2023 Report Share Posted December 12, 2023 He's Mancari without the cannon. And Mancari is his ceiling... round out his game a bit more and he can be an AHL mainstay who tops 30 goals once or twice. Adams is just cycling through his callups to get a look at each, but it seems to me they should either elevate Rousek or go find another waiver claim/trade if you're going to be waiting on Quinn/Tuch/Girgs for a month. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-9 Posted December 12, 2023 Report Share Posted December 12, 2023 I repeat: Brett Murray is not a “tweener”, he is a middling career AHLer at best. At best. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This wasn’t a cycle through the callups callup. This was replacing a need. They had 3 big bodied 2 way forwards go down and needed a big bodied 2 way forward to come up. Big Murr is the best qualified to fill that role. And Robinson made him superfluous now that he’s been shown to be effective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
