gold star for USAHOF

39. Glen Murray

39. Glen Murray

Glen Murray began and ended his career with the Boston Bruins, but in between that was a stint with Pittsburgh, and a six-year run with Los Angeles, that started late in the 1996-97 Season.

Murray received more ice time in L.A., and he was also beginning the prime of his hockey career.  The Right Wing put up 60 Points in his first full year in Los Angeles, and while he dropped to 31 in his second, he rebounded with 62 in his third (1999-00).  Murray continued his trend of bouncing up and down in his Kings stint, dropping back to 39 Points in year four, and at this point, the Kings might have thought they knew what they had with him.

Murray was traded to his original team, Boston, very early in the 2001/02 Season, and he was even better, going to two All-Star Games in the last half of his career.  With the Kings, Murray tabulated 211 Points in 304 Games.
