Matt Murray injured after being tripped by Lucas Raymond.
The often injured Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender appears to suffer another injury on Sunday night.
The Toronto Maple Leafs and goaltender Matt Murray just can't seem to catch a break.
The Maple Leafs were the victims of a very unfortunate incident on Sunday night during the first period of their game against the Detroit Red Wings. Red Wings forward Lucas Raymond appeared to accidently trip/slew-foot the aforementioned Matt Murray when he lost his footing and crashed in Murray's crease.
Unfortunately for Murray, he never saw the Red Wings forward coming and as a result he would crash to the ice, slamming the back of his head in the process. Murray's head bounced off the ice and he appeared to be feeling the ill effects of that blow to the head almost immediately.
That forced Murray off the ice and subsequently that forced goaltender Ilya Samsonov back into action after he played against the Ottawa Senators just 24 hours ago.
Update: No surprise here but Murray will not return to tonight's game.
