Terry Murray isn’t exactly a “stathead,” a coach who throws around numbers a lot, but boy, he remembers the ones that mean something to him. So when Jarret Stoll’s name was brought up after practice today, Murray didn’t need much prompting. “One goal, five assists in the month of December, and that was Dec. 2, [...]

Advice for Stoll: Don’t aim, just shoot

Teddy Purcell missed practice with flu/cold symptoms, Terry Murray said. Purcell’s status for the game likely won’t be known until tomorrow morning. Trevor Lewis mostly skated with Dustin Brown and Jarret Stoll today. Some good quotes to file shortly, back at the hotel…
