  • Bryan Murray diagnosed with cancer

    OTTAWA - The Ottawa Senators announced today that General Manager and President of Hockey Operations Bryan Murray has been recently diagnosed with cancer. The Senators organization issued the following statement:
    “Mr. Murray is undergoing further testing and will begin treatment immediately for this condition as prescribed by the team’s doctors in collaboration with specialists.

    Mr. Murray’s treatment schedule may require him to be away from the Senators office periodically. During his periodic absence, assistant general managers Pierre Dorion and Randy Lee will be responsible for managing the Ottawa Senators hockey operations department.

    On behalf of the entire Senators family, the team is asking that the thoughts, prayers and support of the entire hockey community are with Bryan and his family.

    The Senators and Mr. Murray ask that you please respect his family’s privacy during this time.

    There will be no further comment from the Senators organization.”

            Don't think so, although him, Mark Reeds and Max Keeping are all being honoured during the Hockey Fights Cancer presentation tonight. I found it interesting, as this confirms Mark Reeds has cancer. I think last year they reduced his role because of health issues but never addressed it.

              Also, something pretty classy.

              To raise awareness, for the Bruins Hockey Fights Cancer night, a lot of the players made up cards saying who they're fighting for. Chris Kelly's was Bryan Murray.

                A few Nashville players also wrote Bryan Murray's name .. That is awesome on their part and shows great respect towards BM..

                  I've seen him on TV a few times since - he looks thinner but otherwise appears to be handling it well. I don't really have anything else to go off than that...

                      Re: Bryan Murray diagnosed with cancer

                      I know the stories at the time deliberately left out the type of cancer.

                        Yeah, I think everyone that knows what type is being very tight-lipped about it because Bryan doesn't want that out there. You can't play him, really.

                            If you look up the official Sens page on FB, you'll see the picture. Shea Webber, Mike Fisher and the mascot are those that I remember... I think the article was posted yesterday on the Sens FB page.
