Murray Breaks All-Time Assist Record

Temiscaming Titans star forward and Captain Ryder Murray has broken the GMHL's all time record for Assists. This past Friday against the Parry Sound Islanders, Murray assisted on a third period goal giving him 14 on the year and an astounding 213 career total, breaking the record of 212 career points that was set back in 2011-2012.

The previous record holder was Canadian forward Dylan Sontag who had a very productive five year career for the South Muskoka Shield from 2008-2012.

Ryder is in his final season of junior hockey with the Temiscaming Titans. He has had a letter on his chest for the past four seasons including being the Titans captain for the past three.

Ryder played his minor hockey in his hometown of Spruce Grove Alberta and had his first taste of junior hockey with the Spruce Grove Regals in the CAPJHL before he came to Temiscaming and found a second home with the Royals

In addition to the assist leader board he sits at the top of, Ryder is expected to continue his climb up the all time points leader board. He is fourth with 324 points, but it is within reason  to believe he could surpass both the current third place (John Sweet, 331) and second place (Donny Danroth,349) players this season.

Ryder is a Russell Cup Champion with the Titans (2015). Ryder and his brother Dayton have both enjoyed playing in Temiscaming, currently Ryder is leading his team in points with 23 in 10 games.

Congratulations Ryder on your fantastic career, and good luck this season.
