The Toronto Maple Leafs have acquired goaltender Matt Murray, a 2023 3rd round pick and a 2024 7th round pick from the Ottawa Senators for future considerations.
The Senators are retaining 25 percent of his salary.
Murray has two years left on his contract at a $6.25 million cap hit.
Thoughts from the media
Eric Engels: “I’m just going to say it: I don’t understand why Toronto wants Matt Murray. I hope Matt Murray proves me and any other doubter wrong. I really just can’t see how this solves their goaltending situation.”
