Murray spent his first seven seasons with
Columbus, where he tallied 110 points (15 goals, 95 assists) and
104 penalty minutes in 347 games. He also appeared in 20 playoff
games with the Blue Jackets, notching one goal and two assists.
The Blue Jackets selected Murray with the No. 2 overall pick in
2012.
"Ryan is a very good player and quality person and we thank him
for everything he has done as a member of our organization and
wish him well in the future," Columbus general manager Jarmo
Kekalainen said.
Meanwhile, Devils executive vice president and general manager
Tom Fitzgerald jumped at the chance to bolster his team's blue
line.
"Ryan is a smart, two-way defenseman who fills a need on the
left side of our top four," Fitzgerald said. "His poise,
defensive acumen and transitional game will pair nicely with our
current defensemen on the right side and he will play an
important role for us."
