The Maple Leafs have assigned Matt Murray to Toronto (AHL) on an LTIR conditioning loan.

Murray has not played this season after undergoing hip surgery in October. Murray could see some game action with the Marlies during his loan and if all goes well, provides the Maple Leafs with added goaltending depth for the postseason. But he'll be behind Ilya Samsonov, Joseph Woll, and Martin Jones on the depth chart, so he very likely won't see any games with the Maple Leafs this season.

Grosenick has been recalled from Milwaukee (AHL) on Friday.

With Juuse Saros (roster management) not suiting up on Friday night, the Predators have recalled Grosenick from the Milwaukee Admirals (AHL). Grosenick has a 2.56 GAA and .907 SV% in 28 games this season (17-7-1) with Milwaukee. He will back up Kevin Lankinen against the Chicago Blackhawks.

The Coyotes reassigned Szuber to Tucson (AHL) on Wednesday.

Szuber was Arizona's 2022 sixth-round pick (163rd overall) and made his NHL debut on Tuesday in Seattle after it was announced Travis Dermott would be out for the remainder of the season. The 21-year-old German defenseman excelled in his first season with Tucson before his call-up, with six goals, 24 points, 48 PIMs and a +11 plus/minus through 67 games played.

Nesterenko has been reassigned to San Diego (AHL) on Wednesday.

Nesterenko was the sixth-round pick of the Minnesota Wild in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft and played the last three games with the Ducks, scoring one goal. The 22-year-old played nine games with the Ducks last season and has 33 points (15G / 18A) in 63 games with the San Diego Gulls (AHL).

Schmid has been reassigned to Utica (AHL) on Wednesday.

Schmid was recalled from the Utica Comets (AHL) on Tuesday as a result of Kaapo Kahkonen battling a lower-body injury. The 23-year-old Schmid has split time between the AHL and NHL this season but has struggled at both levels, posting a 3.15 GAA and .895 SV% in 19 games with the Devils (5-9-1).
