Penguins' Matt Murray: Getting back on track

Murray allowed two goals on 35 shots in a 3-2 victory over the Hurricanes on Sunday.

Analysis:

The rookie netminder went through a difficult stretch in April, but he's looked pretty sharp in his last two starts. And the second Hurricanes goal was extremely fluky, as it hit off the boards behind the net, bounced back in front of the goal off Murray's back and then into the net. Excluding that mishap, Murray stopped 33 of 34 on Sunday. He now has 30 victories and a .923 save percentage in his first full NHL season.
