Ryan Murray News

Murray, 21, who missed 44 games earlier this season due to a knee injury is now out with a high-ankle sprain. Murray is expected to miss four to six weeks.

Murray already missed 37 games with a knee injury this season and now he will miss at least another month with an ankle injury that he suffered last night. Overall, Murray has missed 65 of the first 132 (49.2%) games in his young career. Another tough blow to this Blue Jackets team who has battled a multitude of injuries all season long.

Murray left Friday’s win over the Blues and did not return. After the game he was ruled out for Saturday’s game in Ottawa as he stays home to be evaluated. Murray had played just three games since returning from a knee injury and he is already out again.

Murray missed the last 36 games and a total of 40 games this season. He will be back in tomorrow and will likely replace Dalton Prout on the Blue Jackets blue line. He has no points and a minus-3 rating in four games this season.

Murray has missed the last 36 games with a knee injury. Murray, who also missed the first seven games of the season due to off-season knee surgery, has recorded two penalty minutes in four games this season. He collected 21 points (4G / 17A) in 66 games in his first NHL season in 2013-14. Expect him to return to the lineup on Saturday vs. Tampa Bay.

Murray has been sidelined with a knee injury since November 1st. He was a full participant in practice on Wednesday, but has not been cleared to play yet. Despite not being cleared, he will still travel with the team to Florida and could still receive clearance at some point during the trip.

Murray has skated a little bit over the last few weeks, but has yet to join a full practice. He has been out since November 1st with a knee injury, but taking part in some of practice this morning is a good sign that he should be ready to ramp up his workouts.

Murray underwent another MRI that revealed no structural damage to the knee, but he remains out of the lineup for the next little bit. The week-to-week tag means there will not be daily updates on Murray until he gets closer to 100 percent.

Murray’s IR move is retroactive to November 1st, which means he is eligible to return on November 8th. Murray is listed as day-to-day after re-aggravating a knee injury that caused him to miss the first seven games of the season.

Murray's setback is presumably related to his knee injury that forced him to miss the start of the season. Murray had played in the last four games after missing the first seven, but it looks like he could be out for a bit again. The troubles with his knee continue.

Murray missed Monday's practice for a "maintenance day", but his absence again this morning suggests it is more and that he might not be in the lineup tonight vs. the Hurricanes. Frederic St. Denis will replace Murray if he can not go.

Murray will make his season debut tonight after rehabbing a knee injury that he suffered in the preseason. Murray was the second overall pick in the 2012 draft and is a tremendously talented offensive defenseman who has four goals and 17 assists in 66 carer NHL games. Expect him to be paired with James Wisniewski and play a big part on the Columbus power-play.

Murray has not played this season but has been practicing with the team for nearly two weeks, which is a great sign that he is nearing his season debut. Traveling with the team leaves the possibility that the young defenseman will play on the road-trip, but that is not a guarantee at this point.

Murray is nearing his season debut, but head coach Todd Richards said that penciling him for Friday might be "premature". Richards said he has his fingers crossed for Murray to be ready sooner than later, but “it might be pushing it” to suggest Friday as a possibility. Regardless, Murray continues to make progress and it is a long season. If not Friday, Murray could be back Saturday.

Murray has yet to play this season, but he has practiced everyday for the last week, which is a great sign that he is nearing his season debut. Murray is a tremendous offensive talent and will help bolster a Blue Jackets power-play that is working at 12.5% through two games.

Murray still remains without a target date for his return, but says he feels like he is getting closer and closer with each passing day. Murray is a dynamic offensive talent on the blueline and will bolster a Blue Jackets powerplay that went 1/4 on Thursday.

Murray was placed on injured reserve on Sunday which means that he will miss at least the first two games of the season. The face that he is back on the ice this morning is a good sign that he could be back next Tuesday vs. Dallas, the first game he will be eligible to return from IR.

Murray is definitely out for the season opener and the second game of the season on Saturday, but his status beyond that remains unknown. The start of the season will be difficult for Columbus due to a multitude of injuries. Expect solid offensive numbers from Murray when he returns to the blueline.

Murray's return to the lineup would certainly bolster the Blue Jackets' D for a pivotal Game 5.

Murray missed Game 4 with an undisclosed injury and will likely miss Game 5. Coach Richards, however, does expect Murray to play again this series.
