FUN FACTS

The topic of Marty Murray once started a bar brawl in Melita, Manitoba. It involved an elderly man whom took offense to a Saskatchewan teen from the nearby town of Carnduff. The fight broke out as the Saskatchewan resident repeatedly trashed talked Marty Murray's playing style, as well as his future and past hockey experiences. The result of the brawl was the old man getting whupped by the "typical" tough as nails Saskatchewan resident. The group of Saskatchewan residents were all then kicked out of the bar for the night, but felt it was worth it as they seen an 18 year old Sasky defeat a 50+ year old Manitoban.
