Penguins' Matt Murray: Takes part in practice

Murray (hand) was on the ice for practice Monday, Dave Molinari of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Analysis:

Murray has been skating and practicing of late, but remains on injured reserve and will need to be activated prior to suiting up for the Pens. Once healthy, the 22-year-old could cut into some of fellow netminder Marc-Andre Fleury's starts as well as force Mike Condon back onto the waiver wire. Murray, who recently signed a three-year contract extension, will likely be in a season-long battle for ice time with the Flower, thereby limiting his fantasy value.
