Ryan MacMurchy

[BruinsFanAK]

I see his name on Alaska's roster, and see he's under St. Louis contract. Does anyone know anything about this kid? We've heard nothing about him up here yet, and he wasn't in training camp.

[Irish Blues]

He is not under contract to the Blues - I think he signed a contract with Peoria, though. One of the Rivermen fans may have to chime in with some useful info.

Serious bump ! ....

But this guy got voted best player in Norwegian Elite League this season with a total of 75 points in 44 games (37 goals)

And a total of and a total of 97 points if you include the playoffs.

He is most likely to get a big contract in one of the best leagues in Europe next season..

(Germany?)

wow, talk about a bump...

[CarvinSigX]

No ****...I had just graduated from high school!

[Steve French]

finally developing into the high end talent we expected when we drafted him in the 9th rnd

[fcpremix88]

Whoa! Thought Irish Blues had returned for a second there.

Well, irony or not.. He has shown some good plays and is a well trained athlete with serious intentions of being at his best every game... Great dude..

I know that this doesnt mean his a elite forward (NHL Level) but he could easily put up decent if not good number in lets say SEL or SM-Liiga...

[bluemandan]

Good for him, living the dream. Best of luck to him.

Speaking of Norway, here is a time lapse of a train ride from Bergen to Oslo. If you can tune out the tunnels with the blue thingy, it's pretty awesome. Part 1, and Part 2 is better.

I bet Ryan MacMurchy would ride this train.

Now that's a blast from the past.

At least we have MacMurchy if Tarasenko doesn't come over.

You people make me feel old ha ha. I'd been out of high school for 12 years and just moved to England.

It's cool to get a follow-up on a player like that though.

We actually had a program called "Hurtigruta, minutt for minutt" that is the exact same thing just with a cruiseship going up the coast of norway. (Bergen-Nordkapp) Takes about 7 days from start to end and it was all broadcasted live.

I was just looking around for cool train time lapses and found a decent Vancouver-to-Halifax one, but the Norway one is my current favorite. Scandinavia is beautiful. Awesome way to get the feel for traveling across a country. If anyone has any other good links that they think Ryan MacMurchy would love, post em in this thread please.

Won an NCAA championship at Wisconsin. I remember him as a SOLID college player. (Of course, a team mate of Brain Elliott!)

[SphinX]

He is now tearing up Swiss elite (NLA) with 7 goals and 10 points in 7 games!
