This was the statement from the team: «We recently became aware of accusations of improper professional conduct against Bob Murray. After internal review, we enlisted Shephard Mullin to perform an independent investigation. Upon recommendation from their initial findings, we have decided to place Bob on administrative leave pending final results. In the interim, Vice President of Hockey Operations and Assistant General Manager Jeff Solomon will assume the role of Interim General Manager. We will have no further comment until the investigation is complete.»
Surprisingly, reporters and insiders on social media did not appear surprised that Murray was at the centre of it. ESPN's Greg Wyshynski even weighed in on the sources' reactions, saying:
"The lack of surprise from sources about Bob Murray being placed on leave and being investigated is jarring.
«Not in the sense that they knew this was coming, but more about the individual at the center of it.»
