Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Promoted from minors
Murray was recalled from AHL Toronto on Thursday.
Murray has appeared in two games for the Leafs this season in which he posted a 1-1-0 record to go with a 3.53 GAA. Even with his promotion, the two-time Stanley Cup champion figures to serve as the No. 2 option behind Joseph Woll. In the minors this year, Murray is sporting an impressive 1.68 GAA and .934 save percentage while going 8-4-2 in 15 outings.

Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Sent to minors
Murray was assigned to AHL Toronto on Monday.
In a corresponding move, the Maple Leafs summoned Dennis Hildeby from the minors. Murray has allowed seven goals on 58 shots in two NHL starts this season en route to a 1-1-0 record. He had been bouncing between the AHL and NHL levels to maintain his waiver exemption status, but that trend may be ending. According to David Alter of The Hockey News, Hildeby could remain with the big club as the backup behind Joseph Woll due to the absence of Anthony Stolarz (knee).

Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Surrenders four in loss
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.

Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Starting Saturday
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.

Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Back in NHL
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.

Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Set to start against Buffalo
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.

Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Summoned from minors
The Maple Leafs recalled Murray from AHL Toronto on Friday, according to Chris Johnston of The Athletic.
Murray has not played in the NHL since the 2022-23 season, when he was 14-8-2 with a 3.01 GAA and a .903 save percentage. Murray spent most of last season on the sidelines after undergoing bilateral hip surgery, playing three games with AHL Toronto at the end of the campaign. Murray was 4-1-2 with a 1.85 GAA and a .931 save percentage across eight appearances with the Marlies this season. According to Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News, Murray is expected to get the nod on the road versus Buffalo on Friday before Joseph Woll takes the second of the back-to-back at home against the Islanders on Saturday.

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: 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: 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.

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.

Murray, who last played April 2, is slated to be Toronto's third goaltender at practice sessions for now.
