Muckler canned, Murray takes over as GM
June 18, 2007
It is official, Muckler has been fired and replaced with Bryan Murray. This is great news for Binghamton. Muckler had basically abandoned any pretense of player development in the Ottawa system. B-Sens fans complained of the trades that stripped us of our best players, but to be honest those best players weren’t all that great. There hasn’t been a hot prospect to come through Binghamton in the last 2 years except for those in the visiting locker room. There is a new crop of prospects coming in next season, but the ones we’ve seen so far weren’t very impressive. Maybe a 2nd liner or 4th defenseman, but a far cry from the days of Spezza and Emery. Murray has already stated that he is looking to add size to the big club. Hopefully he will address that same inadequacy in the Binghamton club. The most telling move to determine the success of Binghamton next season will be seeing who Murray re-signs…or doesn’t re-sign to be more accurate. This farm system needs an overhaul and fortunately Muckler didn’t get the chance to make any moves before he got the boot.
