We may never know for sure, but if us losing Johnny comes down to Murray's failure to adjust to the economic realities of the league or to his way of negotiating (like a baby), then this will be a tough pill.
Up until now he's been a cap spending owner and my perception is it is the GM's job to allocate. If this isn't true, god help us all.
