Seattle Kraken Sign Two-Time Stanley Cup Goalie Matt Murray
The Seattle Kraken have signed goaltender Matt Murray to a one-year, $1 million contract for the 2025-26 season, adding depth to their goalie lineup which already includes Joey Daccord and Philipp Grubauer. Murray, a two-time Stanley Cup champion with the Pittsburgh Penguins in 2016 and 2017, has struggled with injuries in recent years, including bilateral hip surgery in 2023, limiting his NHL appearances since 2020. Despite these setbacks, he posted strong numbers in the 2024-25 AHL season with the Toronto Marlies, achieving a 10-5-4 record, a 1.72 goals-against average, and a .934 save percentage in 21 games. Kraken GM Jason Botterill expressed confidence in Murray's health and competitiveness, highlighting his proven track record and potential contribution to the team's goaltending depth. Murray's career includes 274 NHL games with a .910 save percentage and 15 shutouts, along with notable playoff success and AHL accolades. While he may start the next season in the minors due to the current depth chart, Murray's experience and past performance make him a valuable addition to Seattle's roster.
