Matt Murray M. Murray

Penguins placing Matt Murray in goal versus New Jersey

Pittsburgh Penguins goalie Matt Murray will start against the New Jersey Devils on Friday night.

What It Means:

Murray was victorious in his one previous start versus the Devils, who enter tonight's matchup with the third-worst offense in the NHL (2.26 goals per game). The second-year keeper is 26-9-3 on the year with a 2.37 goals-against average and .924 save percentage.

numberFire's models project Murray to allow 1.7 goals on 24.4 shots against while giving him a convincing 74.0 percent chance of scoring a win. He's our top-rated fantasy goalie for Friday's four-game slate.
