Matt Murray Will Start Game 2 Against Canadiens
4 years agoPittsburgh Penguins goaltender Matt Murray will get the start in Game 2 against the Canadiens on Monday night. Murray stopped 32-of-35 shots on goal in the opening game of the series but took the loss as defenseman Jeff Petry scored the game-winner in overtime to give the Canadiens the 1-0 series lead. The 26-year-old will look for a bounce back performance as the Penguins try to even up the series and avoid putting themselves in a position where they would face elimination. Murray has enjoyed past Playoff success and gets the edge over goaltender Tristan Jarry once again, but another loss would force the Penguins to heavily consider the idea of starting Jarry in Game 3.
