Murray (upper body) participated in Monday's practice, Matt Tidcombe of the Senators' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Murray said he felt "really good" about Monday's session, calling it a "full practice." The 26-year-old is considered day-to-day for the time being. There's a chance that he'll be ready for Thursday's game versus the Canadiens. Until he gains clearance, Filip Gustavsson and Anton Forsberg should hold down the fort in net.

Murray (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Monday, CapFriendly reports.
EDGE Analysis
Murray has already missed the last five games so he'll be eligible to return to the active roster once he's healthy. The team announced that he was dealing with a week-to-week injury but he doesn't seem to have a clear timetable right now.

Per general manager Pierre Dorion, Murray (upper body) is now considered week-to-week with his upper-body injury, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports.
EDGE Analysis
Murray has been labeled day-to-day since suffering an upper-body during warmups ahead of Sunday's game versus Toronto, but his recovery clearly hasn't been progressing as well as initially expected. Joey Daccord (leg) and Marcus Hogberg (lower body) are both unavailable as well, so for now, Filip Gustavsson will take over as Ottawa's No. 1 netminder.

EDGE Analysis
The Senators hope to have Murray back at practice soon, so there's a good chance he'll be ready to return Monday against Calgary. In the meantime, look for Joey Daccord to start between the pipes in Wednesday's clash with the Canucks.

Murray (upper body) left warmups early and will not start Sunday against Toronto, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear what happened to Murray in warmups but it will be Joey Daccord in goal Sunday. Ottawa plays Vancouver on Monday, and Murray will be questionable for that contest.
