Where Douglas Murray peed in some guy's cereal
A guy named Steve Wozniak wrote something for Yahoo Sports about how Murray is the weak link on the Pens' blue line. The article mentions that Deryk Engelland can go stride-for-stride with speedy NHL forwards, so there's that. Also, this gong show was written on the heels of Game 3, which makes it all the more puzzling.
Here are some good quotes from the article:

Matthew Barry: Cross Iginla Off Kings List
"The chances of the Kings making and succeeding in a serious pitch for the right wing appear slim." - Lisa Dillman, Los Angeles Times.
As much hype as this deal has been touted, as much as Marty McSorley tells the media that Sutter wants Iginla, its just not going to happen.
The Kings would have to give up way too much to acquire him. I mean if a 5-6 D-man like Doug...
Penguins Trades: Renting Iginla Akin to Buying the Cup
I hate the Yankees. They and their talent acquisition model represent everything wrong with America today. I hate the concept of buying talent with no regard for team chemistry in order to try to get whatever trophy awaits you and your overpayed superteam.
If the Penguins rent Jerome Iginla and end up going the distance, it will turn that sweet sip from Lord Stanley’s cup more...
With Doug Murray acquisition, Ray Shero announces, “We’re going for the Cup this year”
As he did with two of his previous acquisitions, Ray Shero did not wait for the NHL’s trade deadline day to improve the Penguins’ roster. Like both the Chris Kunitz and James Neal deals, Shero acted while the rest of the NHL GMs were busy preparing for the April 3rd trade deadline. Yesterday, it was the trade for Brenden Morrow while today, he went out and got Doug Murray...

Potential trade team: San Jose Sharks
Doug Murray would be an interesting trade target.
In Andrew Gross’s post-game wrap of the Rangers win over the Lightning, he mentioned a little nugget about San Jose scout John Ferguson Jr., who was attending his second straight Ranger game. While this could just be JFJ and the Sharks doing their homework for the trade deadline, it got me thinking as to who would be a potential...
All About A Fractured Adam’s Apple
from Jo Innes of the Score, Sharks’ defenseman Doug Murray added his name to my list of Guys Who Are Tougher Than You last week when a puck to the throat left him with a fractured Adam’s apple. Yes, that’s a real thing, and it can be really, really bad. It can also be no big deal*. Let’s learn about the Adam’s apple (what exactly is that thing?) and what happens when you...
