Tim Murray has the NHL background, decisiveness and family pedigree that made him the Sabres' choice to turn around a the franchise, according to an ESPN.com report.
"I wanted to find the right fit for our team, and he's got an eye for talent," Sabres president Pat LaFontaine said Thursday, when he formally introduced Murray as the Sabres' general manager. "He's earned it. He's done every job to get to this point. He's had success everywhere he's been. And he's going to have success here in Buffalo."
