Murray stopped 40 of 42 shots in the Penguins win over the Sharks on Tuesday. It was an exceptional return to the crease for Murray, who is now 10-4-1 with a 2.61 GAA and .921 SV% at the PPG Paints Arena this season. Tonight he will face the Capitals for the third time this season—he is 1-1-0 with a 2.51 GAA and .904 SV% in the first two meetings.
Murray stopped all six shots he faced in relief to earn an overtime win vs. the Bruins on January 7th. He has been either sidelined with a personal matter or serving as Casey DeSmith’s backup ever since, but will return to the cage tonight vs. the Sharks. It has been a difficult month for Murray, but he will try and return to hockey tonight on home ice, where he is 9-4-1 with a 2.65 GAA and .918 SV% this season.

Rielly will miss his second straight game with an upper-body injury, so Connor Carrick and Jake Gardiner will continue to patrol the Maple Leafs’ power-play units. Rielly remains day-to-day and questionable for Wednesday’s game in Chicago.
Murray has missed the last five games while he was attending to a family matter in Ontario but was back at practice on Monday, which suggests that he could be available to start Tuesday’s game vs. the Hurricanes.
Muzzin has missed the last three games with an undisclosed injury but he took a regular rotation at even strength and on the power-play in Wednesday’s practice, so look for him to play tomorrow. Muzzin has had a nice year, picking up 23 points (3G / 20A), 90 shots and 80 blocked shots in 41 games.
Murray missed two games to attend to a family matter before joining his team on their Californian road-trip. It seemed like Murray was on-pace to start Wednesday’s game but his dad passed away so Murray will return home for an indefinite period of time.
Shaw was a healthy scratch in Los Angeles on Saturday and was placed on waivers on Sunday after the Ducks claimed J.T. Brown from the Lightning. Shaw has just two goals and six assists (eight points) in 42 games with the Ducks.
Murray missed the Penguins back-to-back on the weekend while he was dealing with a family matter. Murray will travel to California and will likely start one of the back-to-back games on Wednesday (in Anaheim) or Thursday (in Los Angeles).
Tanev missed the last two games after taking a puck to the mouth in Toronto last Saturday. Tanev has missed a lot of time due to injuries this season but provides a big boost to the Canucks blueline when he’s in. However, he doesn’t boast the best offensive numbers, having scoring just two goals with four assist in 27 games this season.
Tanev will miss his second straight game after being hit in the face by a shot in Saturday’s game in Toronto. Tanev did however skate this morning with a full cage on, so he might be ready for Friday’s game in Columbus.
Muzzin was originally listed as questionable for tonight's game but after being placed on IR he certainly won't be in the lineup against the Predators. The Kings moved him to IR to make room for Christian Folin to be activated, so he will take Muzzin's spot in the lineup.
Muzzin missed the Kings morning skate and is listed as a game-time decision because he is “a little banged up.” Monitor Muzzin’s status as the Kings hit the ice for pre-game warmups at 10:00 p.m. ET.
