Murray will guard the cage versus the Blue Jackets on Thursday, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Murray will make his seventh straight appearance in goal, having posted a 3-2-1 record and 3.34 GAA in his previous six outings. The netminder has been subpar since returning from a nine-game absence due to a concussion, but it appears coach Mike Sullivan will let the 23-year-old work through whatever problems he is having. If the Penguins take care of business Thursday and lock in their playoff seed, look for Casey DeSmith to take the second half of the back-to-back against Ottawa on Friday.
