Leafs demote goaltender ahead of Round 2 matchup with Florida

Prior to their practice today as they get set to take on Florida in Round 2 tomorrow night, the Leafs made a roster move that indicates the return of a regular from injury. The Leafs announced they have sent Erik Kallgren down to the Marlies and that he will be available for Game 3 of their series in the AHL.

The move indicates that Matt Murray has progressed far enough that he is going to be able to return to at least full practice with the Leafs after dealing with a concussion, which he suffered near the end of the regular season. Not that it changes the Leafs' plans for who is starting against Florida after Ilya Samsonov's performance against Tampa, but it does add some additional insurance and shelter for Joseph Woll in case he or Murray are needed.

Murray struggled to stay health this season missing at least a month on three separate occasions - an adductor, ankle and now concussion. In 26 games for the Leafs Murray went 14-8-2 while posting a 3.01 GAA and a .903 save percentage.
