Murray made 34 saves in Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Devils.
EDGE Analysis
The netminder had plenty of luck on his side, as three potential New Jersey goals got disallowed over the course of the night -- two for goalie interference and one that was ruled to have been the result of a kicking motion by Erik Haula. Murray also made some big stops of his own though, and since returning from a groin injury he's 3-0-1 while allowing eight total goals in the four starts. Ilya Samsonov (knee) could have an uphill climb to regain a significant workload once he gets healthy if Murray keeps up this form.

Murray made 30 saves in a 3-2 overtime loss to New Jersey on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Murray was the reason the Leafs managed a point in the game. He made some extraordinary saves, including an acrobatic cross-crease drive on Jack Hughes early in the second period to keep his team within one goal. Murray has been the difference changer in two games since his return from injury, and the Leafs would be wise to give him plenty of rest to help him remain healthy. Keep an eye on his activations. He's going to help you when he's in the crease.

Murray made 35 saves in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Penguins.
EDGE Analysis
Making his first start since Toronto's opener and facing the team he won back-to-back Stanley Cups with earlier in his career, Murray allowed two goals in less than two minutes early in the second period but was otherwise sharp as he picked up his first win as a Maple Leaf. Ilya Samsonov (knee) doesn't yet have a timetable for his return, so Murray could get a chance to lock down the No. 1 job for Toronto if he plays well -- assuming that he's able to stay healthy himself, of course.

Murray (groin) will not suit up Saturday against Vancouver, TSN's Chris Johnston reports.
EDGE Analysis
Murray is back at practice but he isn't quite ready for game action. Head coach Sheldon Keefe said Saturday's goaltender has yet to be determined; Erik Kallgren stopped 19 of 22 shots in Friday's loss to the Penguins and Keith Petruzzelli has not yet made his NHL debut.
