  • Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Goes on waivers

    Murray was moved to the waiver wire Sunday, per Chris Johnston of The Athletic.

    Murray agreed to a one-year, $875,000 contract with the Maple Leafs in July after being limited to three regular-season appearances with AHL Toronto in 2023-24 due to bilateral hip surgery. If he doesn't get claimed by another team, he will continue to work his way back in the minors.

  • Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Re-ups for one year

    Murray (hip) signed a one-year, $875,000 contract with Toronto on Monday, Darren Dreger of TSN reports.

    Murray failed to appear in an NHL game last season due to a long-term hip injury. The two-time Stanley Cup champion did see action in three minor-league contests in which he went 1-2-0 with a 4.03 GAA and .846 save percentage. At this point, Murray is an insurance policy in case Joseph Woll (back) or Anthony Stolarz misses significant time, but Murray is unlikely to make Toronto's Opening Night roster.

  • Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Sent to AHL for conditioning

    Murray (hip) was reassigned to AHL Toronto on a LTI conditioning loan Saturday.

    Murray has been out of action all season after undergoing bilateral hip surgery in October. He can remain at the AHL level for up three games and six days. Murray's expected to see his first game action of the year with the Marlies, who are set to play Saturday at Syracuse and Wednesday in Rochester. He will become an unrestricted agent in the summer.

  • Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Takes shots before practice

    Murray (hip) faced shots before practice Friday, marking the first time he's fielded shots since undergoing bilateral hip surgery in October, according to Terry Koshan of The Toronto Sun.

    Murray is not close to a return, but this was nonetheless an important step in his recovery. Murray is on long-term injured reserve and is not expected to return this season. He's in the final season of his four-year, $25 million contract.

  • Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Out 6-8 months

    Murray is expected to be sidelined for a minimum of 6-8 months after undergoing successful bilateral hip surgery Monday.

    Murray posted a 14-8-2 record last season with a 3.01 GAA and a .903 save percentage in 26 games. The Maple Leafs announced this past summer that the 29-year-old netminder would start the 2023-24 campaign on long-term injured reserve. At the start of training camp, general manager Brad Treliving said that Murray was going to need "significant surgery," but didn't elaborate on the situation at the time. Joseph Woll will go into the upcoming season as Toronto's backup goalie behind Ilya Samsonov.

  • Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Will undergo surgery

    Murray (undisclosed) needs "significant surgery," Maple Leafs general manager Brad Treliving told Lance Hornby of The Toronto Sun on Wednesday.

    There's no timetable for Murray's return, but he's already on the long-term injured reserve list. He had a 14-8-2 record, 3.01 GAA and .903 save percentage in 26 contests in 2022-23. With Murray unavailable, Joseph Woll is projected to enter the campaign as Ilya Samsonov's backup.

  • Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Placed on LTIR

    Murray (undisclosed) is considered out indefinitely and was placed on the long-term injured reserve list by Toronto on Wednesday.

    Toronto didn't specify the reason for moving Murray to the long-term injured reserve list. He didn't play past April 2 because of a concussion, but he was the Maple Leafs' third goaltender for a playoff contest against Florida on May 7, which suggests that he was at least considered an emergency option at that time. The goaltender also missed a significant stretch of the 2022-23 campaign due to an ankle injury. If Murray isn't available going forward, then Joseph Woll is likely to serve as Ilya Samsonov's backup in 2023-24.

  • Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Serving as third goalie

    Murray (concussion) was Toronto's third goalie Sunday against Florida, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

    Murray hasn't appeared in a game since April 2 after suffering a concussion. Whether or not he's 100 percent healthy remains to be seen, but he was available as the third goalie Sunday after Ilya Samsonov (undisclosed) left the game. If Samsonov misses any time, Murray will likely dress as Joseph Woll's backup.

  • Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Not ready to return

    Murray (concussion) practiced Monday but isn't ready to return to the lineup yet, David Alter of Sports Illustrated reports.

    Murray, who last played April 2, is slated to be Toronto's third goaltender at practice sessions for now. He won't travel with the Leafs until he receives clearance, so a return to the lineup may not come until the later games of Toronto's second-round series against Florida. Ilya Samsonov will continue to be backed up by Joseph Woll until Murray is healthy.

  • Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Not available Thursday

    Murray (concussion) remains out of the lineup for Thursday's Game 2 versus the Lightning, David Alter of Sports Illustrated reports.

    Murray hasn't played since April 2, and while he's started skating, his return isn't imminent. Ilya Samsonov and Joseph Woll continue to handle the goaltending duties in the first round of the playoffs.

  • Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Starting to skate

    Murray (concussion) has started to skate in the last couple of days, according to coach Sheldon Keefe, TSN's Chris Johnston reports.

    Murray was injured April 2 versus Detroit and missed the final six games of the season. He's unlikely to dress for Game 1 of the playoffs Tuesday, as Ilya Samsonov is expected to get the start with Joseph Woll as his backup. Murray ended the season with a 14-8-2 record, to go with a 3.01 GAA and .903 save percentage. Consider him day-to-day at this time.

  • Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Still day-to-day

    Murray (head) is still day-to-day and won't travel with the Leafs for the start of the team's three-game road trip Monday in Florida, Mark Masters of TSN reports.

    Head coach Sheldon Keefe said Sunday that Murray's status hasn't changed. It's unclear at this time who will be available to serve as Ilya Samsonov's backup. Toronto plays against Florida on Monday prior to visiting Tampa Bay on Tuesday.

  • Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Not playing Saturday

    Murray (head) will not dress versus Montreal on Saturday, David Alter of Sports Illustrated reports.

    Ilya Samsonov will get the start while the Maple Leafs added University of Toronto goaltender Jett Alexander to their roster to back up Samsonov against the Canadiens. Murray is 14-8-2 with a 3.01 GAA and .903 save percentage this season. This will be the third consecutive game that Murray will miss after getting hurt Sunday versus the Red Wings.

  • Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Game-time call Saturday

    Murray (head) is expected to be a game-time decision Saturday against Montreal, David Alter of Sports Illustrated reports.

    Murray has been improving and could serve as Ilya Samsonov's backup Saturday. He still needs to be cleared by the medical staff before he can return to the lineup. If Murray can't suit up, Toronto may need to dress an emergency netminder because Joseph Woll has been returned to the minors.

  • Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Labeled day-to-day

    According to coach Sheldon Keefe, Murray is considered day-to-day with a head injury and "other stuff," TSN's Chris Johnston reports.

    Murray exited Sunday's loss to the Red Wings in the first period after slamming the back of his head on the ice when Detroit's Lucas Raymond inadvertently collided with him in the crease. Although Murray's been deemed day-to-day, recoveries from head injuries are notoriously hard to predict, so at this point there's no telling when the 28-year-old goaltender may be be ready to return to game action. Joseph Woll should take over as Toronto's No. 2 netminder until Murray is cleared to return.

  • Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: No update after game

    Murray was tested for a concussion but there was no update on his status after Sunday's game against the Red Wings, David Alter of Sports Illustrated reports.

    Coach Sheldon Keefe said that an update should be available before Tuesday's game against Columbus. Murray allowed two goals on seven shots before leaving Sunday's contest.

  • Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Exits Sunday's game

    Murray (undisclosed) was injured during Sunday's game against Detroit, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

    The 28-year-old netminder went down hard after Lucas Raymond inadvertently took him out in the crease. An update on Murray should be available in the coming days. Ilya Samsonov replaced him in goal.

  • Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Starting Sunday

    Murray will defend the home crease versus Detroit on Sunday, Luke Fox of Sportsnet reports.

    Murray will return to the crease after sitting on the bench for the previous three games, including Saturday's tilt in Ottawa. Murray is 14-8-2 with a 2.96 GAA and .905 save percentage. The Red Wings are 24th in NHL scoring, averaging 2.91 goals per contest.
