Returning to L.A.
Andy Murray said he was happy to be back in Los Angeles and held no hard feelings toward the Kings. The Blues practiced in El Segundo after the Kings today.
``It was seven of the best years of my life,'' Murray said. ``The chance to live in L.A., the chance to coach the Kings, I was so grateful for that. I met so many great people. I tried to do the right things and treat people right when I was there. I think, when you do that, you can feel OK going back to a situation. The organization treated me very well. I was blessed to have that opportunity. I got lots of friends and respect out there. So I'm happy for Brady that he gets to be part of a classy organization.''

What a game opener this is going to be. It was really tough watching him with St. Louis last year... I was happy to see him working but hey...he's a king!
Welcome back Andy.
Welcome home Andy...We miss ya!
Andy Murray = Class
Lots of luck with the Blues Coach, just not against the Kings. ;)
Welcome back, Andy.
Have a great season in St. Louis!!!
Always loved Murray. I think he was just a victim of duration and a situation that needed a scapegoat. I think I will always consider him a King, no matter what team he coaches.
You're a class act, Andy. However, I hope your boy has a hat trick against your team tonight! You must be so proud of your son...
once again Andy shows nothing but class......
Maybe in a couple of years the Kings and Blues will meet for the Western Conference Championship and a trip to the Stanley Cup Finals.
What a class act Andy Murray is and always has been.
