Next year MAF will still be a Penguin and Matt Murray will not, you all are underestimating how fantastically popular he is in the locker room and with J. Average Pens Fan. They absolutely are going to sell themselves on MAF still has a few good years left and then Jarry can take over, and besides Murray may never stay healthy for six straight months, and let Vegas take Murray.

The fans loving hate him, they think we'd have won the cup literally every year from 2010 to 2015 if not for him. They also had no problem shipping out Colby Armstrong, who is probably Sid's best friend in hockey ever

Murray is almost 10 years younger and also cheaper, all they are thinking now is "oh maybe we can get more than a 4th rounder for him"

I could still see Rutherford shipping him out/buying him out honestly. It's not like teams have never gotten rid of cup winning goalies.

The thing is... I'm not actually really upset about it. Murray really does have serious problems staying healthy, and I think Jarry really will be good enough to win with, and I like MAF dammit :3: $5M of cap space would be awful nice to have though, yeah.

It doesn't matter how popular he is in the locker room.

Matt Murray is a Stanley Cup winner.
MAF is a Stanley Cup winner.

Examine the financials and the guaranteed contract years and figure out who will be in the net next year. It won't be MAF.

i like maf except for the part where he doesn't stop as many pucks as other goalies, but now that he's stopping lots of pucks, sometimes even all of the pucks, he's a cool + funny dude i like having on the team.

Wow, that was a sick rear end game. Given how the first 6 games went, I really was not optimistic going into this, and the first 10 minutes or so were pretty rough. Easily the best game the Pens played all series, if not all playoffs. Assorted views:

- Pens looked fast for the first time in a long time
- Ruhwedel, Wilson, and Rowney were all awesome
- Maatta and Hainsey are terrifying and bad
- I get that Cole gets hated on and he deserves some of it, but he's been just about as good as any of the Pens D
- I wouldn't mind dressing 11 FW and 7 D, or at the very least, alternating which D are dressed every 1-2 games
- Jake Guentzel is the loving truth

I know it's the playoffs and anything can happen, but I am so loving ready for the Sens. Crosby and Malkin are going to make EK their bitch and it's going to be incredible.

My only consolation at this point is that the SCF within the next 5 years is going to be Edmonton vs Toronto.

It sucks the way it went down, and we'll no doubt be hearing about crooked refs until the oilers win the cup.

Nah the average fan loves Maf.

I can't see any way they keep him. It would be too costly in assets to do so. Either you lose Murray for nothing or you pay Vegas probably a first round pick or whatever to not take him. I guess if Maf wins a cup you never know what stupidity might arise from that but if they do I guess I'd live with it anyways because of back to back cups.
