The veteran defenceman is finished for the season as recovers from a cervical spine injury.
Standing pat would be the safest, most conservative action for Dubas but he hardly seems the type. One question is when will Murray be reactivated? The Leafs could acquire more players of significance at the deadline if Murray stays on injured reserve, then goes to the Marlies on a rehab assignment to prepare for the playoffs.— the Tampa Bay forward missed the 2020-21 season, giving the Lightning $9.5 million in cap relief, only to return for the first game of the playoffs.
The Leafs could also use long-term injured reserve if a player with a significant contract gets hurt before March 22. That tool can’t be used if fewer than 10 games and 24 days remain in the season. Or they take a player-in/player out approach to trading if it means an upgrade on the likes of Anderson and Benn. That could mean active use of the waiver wire on March 2, to open up space for the next da.
There’s also the miracle known as assistant GM Brandon Pridham. If there’s a salary cap loophole to be used or a dollar amount left unaccounted for, Pridham likely will find it.
