According to coach D.J. Smith, Murray (upper body) "isn't close" to returning, Ian Mendes of TSN 1200 Ottawa reports.

EDGE Analysis

Murray isn't skating and it appears as though he's likely facing a long-term absence. Anton Forsberg and Filip Gustavsson will operate as the Senators' top-two netminders until Murray, who's gone 5-12-2 while posting a 3.05 GAA and a .906 save percentage through 20 appearances, is cleared to return.
