Anaheim Ducks GM Bob Murray has recently said several times that changes need to happen for the team to be competitive. So far he hasn’t backed his words with meaningful actions.

Over the last six months, Anaheim Ducks General Manager Bob Murray has publicly voiced his displeasure about the product on the ice. He has called out team leadership, canned an assistant coach, and made several promises.

So far what he said has to happen for the Ducks to compete and what he’s done to back it up are at odds with each other. He wants to make changes to the team but hasn’t done much of anything that resembles substantial.

This is the disconnect. Murray is saying a whole lot in public, but there is almost no action behind his words. I’ll demonstrate this by using his own statements and what has followed since.
