Patrolling crease Monday Murray will defend the cage against the Habs on Monday, Josh Getzoff of PensTV reports.

Impact Murray made 32 saves in Saturday's overtime defeat to the Habs. The Thunder Bay native apparently showed the coaching staff enough to warrant another kick at the can versus Montreal. Still, if Murray stumbles at any point along the way, he figures to see Tristan Jarry coming in to replace him.

Gets starting nod Murray will defend the blue paint during Saturday's Game 1 against Montreal.

Impact Murray was outplayed by Tristan Jarry during the regular season, but it's not exactly shocking that the Penguins have decided to roll with the netminder that already has two Stanley Cup championships to his name for Game 1. He'll attempt to pick up his first win of the postseason in a matchup with a Montreal squad that averaged 2.93 goals per game during the regular season, 19th in the NHL.

Allows overtime goal Jarry stopped seven shots against Philadelphia on Tuesday but gave up the game-winning goal in overtime.

Impact Jarry took the reins during the second half and was stellar considering he came into the game cold. The goaltender certainly put forward his case to be named the No. 1 versus Montreal on Saturday, though Matt Murray put together an acceptable performance as well with 10 saves on 12 shots.

Allows two goals in exhibition Murray made 10 of a possible 12 saves in Tuesday's matchup with Philadelphia.

Impact It was a so-so outing for Murray as he tries to persuade the coaching staff to name him the Game 1 starter against Montreal on Saturday. Even if the netminder does defend the cage for the best-of-five series with the Habs, he could still end up sharing the crease down the road with Tristan Jarry.

Will play second half Jarry will defend the crease for the second half of Tuesday's exhibition versus the Flyers, Michelle Crechiolo of Pens Inside Scoop reports.

Impact The fact that both netminders are going to see the ice likely means no final decision on the Game 1 starter versus Montreal has been made, though Matt Murray getting the nod Tuesday could be an indication of which direction the team is leaning. Still, a strong outing by Jarry could be enough to steal the No. 1 spot for Saturday's contest.

Impact While the final decision may remain up in the air, the fact that Murray is starting Tuesday could be a sign he has the inside track for Game 1 versus Montreal on Saturday. A lot will likely depend upon how Murray and Tristan Jarry fare against the Flyers, which will carry significant weight for decisions in postseason pools.
