A couple reasons why Dean Lombardi is going to hire Terry Murray

From Lisa Dillman of the L.A. Times:

Lombardi said he was impressed that Murray spent hours breaking down game film. He also was able to observe Murray’s work habits first-hand in Philadelphia, and more recently received a solid endorsement from Flyers General Manager Paul Holmgren. Then at the NHL draft last month, Lombardi spoke to Flyers senior vice president Bobby Clarke about Murray.

“He’s a detail guy, a good teacher, not going to play mind games,” Lombardi
said of Murray. “He’ll tell it straight to your face.”

Lombardi points out in this article that he understands the Kings are a rebuilding project and will need to be patient moving forward. Apparently he thinks Terry Murray is the perfect fit to lead that development.
