Matt Murray Hits The Ice At Maple Leafs Practice For The First Time Since Injury

The 29-year-old veteran had been gradually ramping up his practice sessions over the past few weeks, but today marked his first appearance with his teammates on the ice.

Murray's presence at the practice session sparked discussions among fans, especially considering the Maple Leafs already have a solid goaltending roster with Samsonov, Woll, and Jones.

While Murray's return is a positive sign, it raises questions about the team's goaltending situation, particularly with the playoffs approaching. Many fans are debating whether it's necessary to activate Murray, given the depth already available.

Both Samsonov and Woll have had their ups and downs this season but remain the top choices for the Leafs between the pipes. Additionally, there's excitement about prospect Dennis Hildeby, who has been making waves with the Marlies.

Although it's unlikely Hildeby will see NHL action this season, the experience gained with the Marlies could be invaluable for his development.

As for Murray, his return is a hopeful sign, but the focus remains on securing a playoff spot for both the Leafs and the Marlies.
