• The Kraken announced Thursday that Murray is away from the team due to a family matter.

  Murray has been back in action for a month after missing time due to a lower-body injury, but he's now tending to a family matter. Niklas Kokko was recalled from AHL Coachella Valley and will likely serve as Joey Daccord's backup Thursday against the Golden Knights, although the Kraken haven't yet named a starter. It's not yet clear when Murray will be able to return, but his next chance to do so will be Saturday against the Flames.

• Murray (lower body) was activated from injured reserve Tuesday.

  Murray went down with the long-term injury Nov. 15 and is set to return to Seattle's lineup. With Philipp Grubauer struggling since the Olympic break, Murray will likely compete with him for secondary starts to relieve the team's No. 1 option, Joey Daccord. Across five games this season, Murray has a record of 0-2-1 with a 2.21 GAA and a .922 save percentage. With Tuesday's move coming hours before the puck drops between Seattle and Nashville, Murray will likely be a healthy scratch before having a chance to suit up for Thursday's game against Colorado.

• Murray (lower body) is expected to be out of action for about six weeks, the team announced Tuesday. He has been placed on injured reserve, per the NHL media site.

  Seattle activated Joey Daccord (upper body) from injured reserve ahead of Tuesday's road matchup against Detroit, which vaults him back into the No. 1 position on the depth chart. Once Murray is healthy, he could compete with Philipp Grubauer for spare starts again. The 31-year-old Murray has gone 0-2-1 while allowing eight goals on 102 shots across five appearances this season.

• Murray (lower body) won't return to Saturday's game versus the Sharks.

  Murray sustained the injury on the Sharks' first goal, a power-play tally by Alexander Wennberg. This puts the Kraken's goalie depth in danger, as Joey Daccord (upper body) is still working his way back from a stint on injured reserve. Murray's status should be updated in the coming days, but if his injury is bad enough, he may find himself on IR.

• Murray will patrol the home crease versus San Jose on Saturday, according to Mike Benton of the Kraken Audio Network.

  Murray has played well for the Kraken in a limited role. He is 0-2-1 with a 2.13 GAA and a .926 save percentage in four appearances this season. The Sharks are averaging 3.06 goals per game, a huge increase from last season, when they were 32nd in the NHL, averaging only 2.54 goals per contest.

• Murray stopped 33 of 34 shots in Tuesday's 2-1 shootout loss to the Blue Jackets.

  Murray put in his best performance of the season so far, but he wasn't able to snag a win as Jet Greaves kept things level in the other crease. The 31-year-old Murray has allowed seven goals over four appearances (three starts) to begin his tenure with the Kraken, but he's 0-2-1. He's started the last two games over Philipp Grubauer and has likely earned additional time while Joey Daccord (upper body) is on the mend. It's quite possible Murray is playing for his roster spot, as it could be untenable for the Kraken to carry three goalies once Daccord is healthy.
