Over the past few days, we’ve been hearing about a rather strange idea, but it might seem logical at first glance. He’s the one talking about the trade between the Maple Leafs and the Senators regarding goalkeeper Matt Murray.
The Leafs and Sens have swapped some big ticket contracts in recent years.

Jared QuinnIs there any way Matt Murray could be traded in Toronto and make sense for both sides?

Yes, Murray has struggled lately, but it makes sense that he’s a two-time Stanley Cup champion. So he has proven that he can stand up to the big moments.
The problem is that Murray makes a lot of money. At 6.25 million for two more seasons, he takes up a lot of room under the salary cap, especially for a team like the Maple Leafs.
What if Sens withheld half of Murray’s salary? Could the papers be interested?
The problem is that even with about 3 million per season, Murray is far from foolproof. And now, the Leafs need a consistent goalkeeper. Someone who’s not a superstar, but at least he still plays the same way. Someone who might not win matches, but he won’t make you lose either.
And Murray does not have this profile, quite the contrary. Murray can steal games from you, he can even repeat it in a short amount of time. But it can fall into a bad streak and have a negative impact on the team.
I understand Murray previously played under Kyle Dupas and Sheldon Keefe as a youngster, and I also understand that the Suns are open to trading the veteran goalkeeper.
But I don’t think Maple Leafs are a viable destination.
