Murray turned aside 27 of 31 shots faced during Saturday's 5-2 home loss to the Capitals. Murray is still searching for his first win of the season after allowing at least three goals in each of his first two starts since being recalled following the injury to Anthony Stolarz (knee). The 30-year-old could be worth the occasional spot start behind a high-powered Maple Leafs team, but with Joseph Woll firmly entrenched as the starter, Murray has yet to re-establish himself as much of a fantasy commodity.

Murray will guard the home net Saturday against the Capitals, Terry Koshan of The Toronto Sun reports. It'll be the second start of the year for Murray -- he stopped 24 of 27 shots in a win over Buffalo on Dec. 20. The 30-year-old netminder will have a tougher task this time around against the Capitals, who rank third in goals per game with 3.68.

Murray was recalled from AHL Toronto on Thursday. Murray made his first NHL start in 628 days Friday and stopped 24 shots in a 6-3 victory over Buffalo. He was sent down to the minors the following day for roster management purposes, allowing the Maple Leafs to avoid waivers. Look for the same situation this week as it is likely Murray starts Friday in Detroit, and if he does, he should return to the AHL on Saturday with Dennis Hildeby returning to the Toronto roster.

Murray was returned to AHL Toronto on Saturday, according to David Alter of The Hockey News. Murray made his first NHL appearance in 628 days Friday, turning aside 24 shots in a 6-3 win over Buffalo. He was likely sent down for roster management purposes, as he will not have to go through waivers. The Maple Leafs promoted Dennis Hildeby from the AHL in a corresponding move.

Murray will serve as the starting goaltender for Friday's road game against Buffalo, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports. Murray was called up by the Maple Leafs on Friday and will make his first NHL appearance since April 2, 2023, as he missed most of last season after undergoing bilateral hip surgery. The 30-year-old made 26 appearances for Toronto during the 2022-23 campaign and posted a 14-8-2 record, 3.01 GAA and .903 save percentage. He's been productive in the AHL to begin the 2024-25 season, going 4-1-2 with a 1.85 GAA and a .931 save percentage. It's unclear how he'll fare in his first taste of NHL action following his lengthy layoff, but he'll have a slightly favorable opponent, as the Sabres are generating 2.88 goals per game this season, which ranks 21st in the NHL.
