Intriguing.

Murray on David Clarkson "We hope that he chooses us...he is one person we have targeted."

Hmmm. See below.

Murray says he's targeting forwards more than defensemen.

Who was he just taking about?! The one they pitched?

Delete this nonsense crap before Sandy sees it  

Murray is clearly exasperated with the Alfie talk nonsense. Like me.

Smart man. I happen to like our D. I suspect he may still add some cheap depth like Blum or Russell.

Good friends with Spezza, Murray gave him their best pitch.

Clarkson is apparently a friend of Spezza. SWIRLIMOES!

Hmm, interesting. Hadn't considered that.

Wow, hockey buzz strikes again with their accurate accounts of nothing they know anything about.

Anyways, sign Alfie, sign Clarkson... I don't see anyone in the Sens division that can push them around or beat them in a 7 game series, including Boston.

What is happening currently in the press conference is a masterful job by Murray. Murray is probably overselling our ability to sign free agents, in response to the Twitter beating that Melnyk's taken over the past couple days. Also, he's smartly downplaying The Alfie drama. He sure knows how to work the media.
