Murray signed a professional tryout agreement with Pittsburgh on Friday, per NHL Insider Frank Seravalli.
EDGE Analysis
Murray will face an uphill battle in securing a permanent contract with the Penguins, considering the organization already has several veterans on the roster who are filling bottom-six roles, including Kevin Hayes (lower body), Noel Acciari (undisclosed) and Danton Heinen. If Murray does secure a contract with Pittsburgh, it figures to be a two-way deal that will see him shift between levels.

Murray signed a one-year, two-way contract with Buffalo on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
For the third straight year, Murray has agreed to a one-year, two-way contract with the Sabres at the start of free agency. Those contracts haven't turned into NHL opportunities, as the 25-year-old winger has logged just two games with Buffalo over the last two seasons. As such, fantasy managers should expect Murray to continue serving as a depth player with AHL Rochester.
