Murray (illness) will be available for Saturday's matchup with the Sabres, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports. Murray has missed New Jersey's last two contests with an illness, but he should return to the lineup Saturday. He's picked up two assists through nine games this season.

Murray (illness) won't play Thursday against the Bruins, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports. Murray's continued absence will test the Devils' depth at defense, but it won't impact many fantasy lineups, as he's only picked up two assists through nine games this campaign. Another update on the former Blue Jackets' status should be released once he's cleared to rejoin the lineup.

Murray is dealing with an illness and will not play Tuesday against the Rangers. Murray hasn't been added to the NHL's COVID-19 protocol, and it's ultimately unclear what type of illness the blueliner is dealing with. Nonetheless, he'll sit out his first game of the season and look to return as early as Thursday in Boston.

Murray dished out an assist in Thursday's 3-1 loss to the Flyers. Murray finally got his first point as a member of the Devils in his seventh game with the team, assisting on Damon Severson's first-period goal. The offseason trade acquisition is playing top-pairing minutes in New Jersey, but Murray's focus is primarily defensive -- he has just five shots to go with one point through seven games.

Murray was traded to New Jersey by Columbus in exchange for a 2021 fifth-round pick Thursday, Corey Masisak of The Athletic reports. Murray was the second overall pick in the 2012 draft, but he never really grew into the player Columbus thought he would become. Dealing with plenty of injuries in his career, Murray was limited to just 27 NHL games last season, supplying two goals and nine points in that span. The Devils will pick up all of Murray's $4.6 million cap hit for next season, with Murray set to hit free agency following the 2020-21 campaign.
