Kraken's Matt Murray: Out for approximately six weeks
Murray (lower body) is expected to be out of action for about six weeks, the team announced Tuesday. He has been placed on injured reserve, per the NHL media site.
Seattle activated Joey Daccord (upper body) from injured reserve ahead of Tuesday's road matchup against Detroit, which vaults him back into the No. 1 position on the depth chart. Once Murray is healthy, he could compete with Philipp Grubauer for spare starts again. The 31-year-old Murray has gone 0-2-1 while allowing eight goals on 102 shots across five appearances this season.

Kraken's Matt Murray: Injured late in first period
Murray (lower body) won't return to Saturday's game versus the Sharks.
Murray sustained the injury on the Sharks' first goal, a power-play tally by Alexander Wennberg. This puts the Kraken's goalie depth in danger, as Joey Daccord (upper body) is still working his way back from a stint on injured reserve. Murray's status should be updated in the coming days, but if his injury is bad enough, he may find himself on IR.

Kraken's Matt Murray: First off ice Saturday
Murray will patrol the home crease versus San Jose on Saturday, according to Mike Benton of the Kraken Audio Network.
Murray has played well for the Kraken in a limited role. He is 0-2-1 with a 2.13 GAA and a .926 save percentage in four appearances this season. The Sharks are averaging 3.06 goals per game, a huge increase from last season, when they were 32nd in the NHL, averaging only 2.54 goals per contest.

Kraken's Matt Murray: Good performance not enough
Murray stopped 33 of 34 shots in Tuesday's 2-1 shootout loss to the Blue Jackets.
Murray put in his best performance of the season so far, but he wasn't able to snag a win as Jet Greaves kept things level in the other crease. The 31-year-old Murray has allowed seven goals over four appearances (three starts) to begin his tenure with the Kraken, but he's 0-2-1. He's started the last two games over Philipp Grubauer and has likely earned additional time while Joey Daccord (upper body) is on the mend. It's quite possible Murray is playing for his roster spot, as it could be untenable for the Kraken to carry three goalies once Daccord is healthy.

Kraken's Matt Murray: Patrolling home blue paint Tuesday
Murray was the first goaltender off at morning skate, according to Mike Benton of the Kraken Audio Network, which indicates he will draw the start at home against the Blue Jackets on Tuesday.
Murray turned in a respectable showing Sunday against Dallas, stopping 23 of 25 shots, but his team provided him with just one goal en route to a 2-1 loss. If Murray continues to perform admirably, he could be the de facto No. 1 option over Philipp Grubauer while Joey Daccord is on injured reserve due to an upper-body injury. The Blue Jackets are coming off a 5-4 overtime loss in Edmonton on Monday, so the Kraken have the rest advantage Tuesday.

Kraken's Matt Murray: Remains winless after Sunday
Murray stopped 22 of 24 shots in Sunday's 2-1 loss to the Stars.
Murray was beaten twice in the first period, but even though he looked solid the rest of the way, he was unable to pick up his first win of the season. The 31-year-old goaltender has gone 0-2-0 with a 2.72 GAA and .900 save percentage in three appearances this season. However, as the backup behind Philipp Grubauer while Joey Daccord (upper body) is on the shelf, Murray isn't expected to see a lot of playing time any time soon.

Kraken's Matt Murray: Draws road start
Murray will patrol the blue paint Sunday in Dallas, per the NHL media site.
Murray will draw the start in the second half of Seattle's back-to-back set after Philipp Grubauer was in net during Saturday's 4-3 overtime win over St. Louis. The 31-year-old Murray has made two appearances this season, stopping a combined 32 of 36 shots, but he has yet to find the win column. The Stars also played Saturday, picking up a 5-4 win in Nashville. Dallas has generated 3.00 goals per game in 2025-26, which ranks 18th in the NHL.

Kraken's Matt Murray: Makes relief appearance
Murray allowed a goal on three shots in relief of Joey Daccord in Wednesday's 6-1 loss to the Sharks.
Murray came in after Daccord allowed a shorthanded goal to Ty Dellandrea. The first shot Murray faced was right after Tyler Toffoli exited the penalty box at the conclusion of a Kraken power play, and Toffoli was able to convert for the goal. Murray has made two appearances with the Kraken, and he's allowed four goals on 36 shots. The 31-year-old is battling with Philipp Grubauer for backup duties, but Daccord's heavy workload has left little opportunity for the other two goalies to get time. One of Murray or Grubauer should start either Saturday in St. Louis or Sunday in Dallas.

Kraken's Matt Murray: Downed by Caps in season debut
Murray turned aside 30 of 33 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to Washington, with the Capitals' final goal getting scored into an empty net.
Making his first appearance of the season on the second night of a back-to-back for the Kraken, Murray wasn't particularly sharp. He got clean looks at two of the long-range shots that beat him. Seattle is carrying three goalies to begin the year, and while Joey Daccord's No. 1 spot is secure, Murray could wind up with the No. 2 spot if he outplays Philipp Grubauer -- although Tuesday's effort didn't make a strong case for him to move up the depth chart.

Kraken's Matt Murray: Making team debut
Murray will guard the road goal versus the Capitals on Tuesday, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.
Murray is set for his Kraken debut. The 31-year-old has been battling with Philipp Grubauer for backup duties, but Joey Daccord's strong play early on has left little playing time for the other two goalies on the Seattle roster. The Capitals are a tough foe, having scored 17 goals while going 4-2-0 to start the season.

Kraken's Matt Murray: Set to start Friday
Murray will protect the road goal in Friday's preseason game versus the Canucks, per the NHL media site.
Murray will get the nod, though it's possible he'll split the game with Philipp Grubauer. Those two netminders are competing to be Joey Daccord's backup in 2025-26, though there is a slight chance the Kraken carry three goalies to avoid losing Murray on waivers.

Kraken's Matt Murray: Signs one-year deal
Murray signed a one-year, $1 million contract with Seattle on Tuesday.
Murray posted a 10-5-4 record with a 1.72 GAA and a .934 save percentage across 21 outings with AHL Toronto in 2024-25. The 31-year-old netminder only appeared in three regular-season contests with AHL Toronto in 2023-24 due to bilateral hip surgery. Murray might start the 2025-26 campaign in the minors because Joey Daccord and Philipp Grubauer are ahead of him on the Seattle depth chart.

Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Needed in relief in Game 5
Murray turned aside six of seven shots Wednesday after replacing Joseph Woll early in the third period of the Maple Leafs' 6-1 loss to the Panthers in Game 5 of their second-round series.
The lopsided result should be laid firmly at the feet of Toronto's defensive effort, as neither goalie had much chance at any of the pucks that got past them. Anthony Stolarz (upper body) hasn't played since Game 1, and if he's not ready to return in Game 6 on Friday, it's at least possible the desperate Leafs turn to Murray between the pipes as they attempt to avoid elimination.

Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Serving as backup Wednesday
Murray will serve as the backup netminder for Wednesday's Game 2 at home against the Panthers, David Alter of The Hockey News reports.
Anthony Stolarz (upper body) has been ruled out for Wednesday's matchup, so Joseph Woll will serve as the starting netminder. Murray will dress as the No. 2 goalie for Game 2, but it's also possible that Dennis Hildeby dresses as the backup later in the series if Stolarz is forced to miss additional time.

Maple Leafs' Matt Murray: Heads to AHL
Murray was reassigned to AHL Toronto on Thursday.
Murray, who was summoned Jan. 23, didn't end up playing for the Maple Leafs during his latest NHL stint, but he does have a 1-1-0 record, 3.53 GAA and .879 save percentage in two NHL appearances in 2024-25 due to a previous stint with Toronto. Anthony Stolarz (knee) was activated off injured reserve Thursday, which is why Murray is returning to the minors.

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.
