from Jo Innes of the Score,
Sharks’ defenseman Doug Murray added his name to my list of Guys Who Are Tougher Than You last week when a puck to the throat left him with a fractured Adam’s apple. Yes, that’s a real thing, and it can be really, really bad. It can also be no big deal*. Let’s learn about the Adam’s apple (what exactly is that thing?) and what happens when you break yours.

Douglas Murray Out With A Fractured Adam’s Apple

from David Pollak of Working the Corners,
Did get here in time to talk with Douglas Murray, who did not skate and won’t be playing tomorrow after a puck ramped up his stick and struck him in the throat…..
The problem is a fractured Adam’s apple that – if swelling occurs – would seriously and dangerously hamper his breathing.
.”What the doctors have told me, they call it prime real estate,” Murray said of the damaged area. “There’s not a lot of room there so any type of swelling becomes a major thing, though it’s nothing major right now.”
But right now, he feels fine.
“There’s nothing I can really feel. It’s more doctors that are going to make a decision on it. It can get a lot worse and it’s something you don’t want to mess around with,” he said. “Right now I just listen to what the doctors say.”

from Mike Heika of the Dallas Morning News
, “Colin Campbell has his hands full, that’s for sure,’’ Ott said in regards to the NHL’s chief disciplinarian, who will have to review the game. ``The Loui Eriksson hit, I think that is prototypical. He’s reaching for the hit. The big guy knows what he is doing….

The Smart Defenseman

from David Pollak of Working the Corners at the Mercury News,
Unless you’re an A’s fan, you might have missed a brief mention of this in this morning’s print edition, but The Sporting News included Sharks defenseman Douglas Murray on its list of the Top 20 Smartest Athletes.
The Cornell-educated (he needs one credit to graduate) Murray finished at No. 16, behind only one other NHL player, fellow Ivy Leaguer George Parros, a Princeton grad in economics who finished No. 4 overall.
“You take it for what it is,” Murray said today. “It’s more of a resume` thing. It’s obviously fun.”
You’ll notice the information on Murray doesn’t even mention what is probably his greatest intellectual achievement: his role in the invention of the ubertap, that prized device that allows party-goers to fill multiple glasses of beer from a keg simultaneously.

Preppy Fighting

from Billy Witz of the LA Times,
When Ducks forward George Parros extended an invitation to Sharks defenseman Douglas Murray to drop their gloves and begin to brawl in Game 3 of their Western Conference playoff series, it did not come on embossed stationary or in the form of poetry.
“I asked, ‘Do you want to do this?’ ” Parros said. “It wasn’t an intellectual conversation.”
Not what one would expect from a couple of Ivy League graduates….
They have been running into each other on rinks since their high school days in the New York City area.
“We’ve been taking runs at each other for so many years,” said Murray, who came to the U.S. from Sweden at age 17 to live with relatives on Long Island for a year. He liked it so much he stayed.

from the Calgary Sun,
Douglas Murray’s invention doesn’t have huge cashflow, but he’s tapped into college kids’ hearts.
While at Cornell University, the San Jose Sharks defenceman and some friends came up with the UberTap, a quick spout for beer kegs.
Surely it must have him drowning in success.
“Not right now,” he said. “But we’re making some kids happier.”
