Murray to Oversee AHL Operations
SPRINGFIELD, Mass. -- American Hockey League President and CEO David Andrews announced today that former Dartmouth standout Michael Murray has been named to the position of Vice President of Hockey Operations for the AHL.
Murray, who begins his duties later this month, will take over for Rod Pasma, who has accepted a position in the hockey operations department of the National Hockey League.
Murray will be responsible for overseeing all aspects of the league's hockey operations department, including management of the AHL's officiating program, the league's disciplinary process, player registry, compliance with rules and regulations, and scheduling.
"We are excited and fortunate to be bringing Mike on board to lead our hockey operations department," said Andrews. "On behalf of our Board of Governors, I would like to welcome him to the American Hockey League, and also thank Rod for his service and wish him all the best with the NHL."
Murray, 31, comes to the AHL following three seasons with the ECHL, where he most recently served as vice president of hockey operations. An admitted member of the Massachusetts Bar, Murray received his bachelor's degree in history from Dartmouth, where he played varsity hockey for four years, and was awarded his Juris Doctor cum laude from Suffolk University Law School in Boston.
