a 5th!? That's it!? I feel like he's worth more. 

I remember when Garth snow offered #4 and every pick he had in the draft for this kid. 

Couldn't trade every one of those players for a 5th.

The question is why is Columbus so desperate to clear cap... Their defensive lineup was really solid with Murray as a #4/5th for them. 

Murray only played 27 games last season.  He has chronic back issues.  He's been missing time the past few seasons.   

 

CBJ wants to add scoring up front.

Ouch. Columbus losing some asset value in Murray, Wennburg, Nutivaara.....

At least they won't be alone - will have a fairly good chance of buying it back in the UFA or trade market....but it has the optics of 'lost homegrown picks'...

 

A good player if he could ever get lucky enough to remain healthy.

 

Solid low risk for the Devils to take imo - it seems to be a trend among the weaker teams thus far  - of taking on deflated player values as opposed to picks for cap dumps....

 

Hard to argue with taking on Murray for a 5th round pick if you have the cap space...

one might think - but it's a real tight market to move cap - and Murray has been injured so often, including this past season where he played only 27 games....

 

If he ever does remain healthy though, a team like NJ taking a flyer....probably won't regret it.
