Matt Murray was back at work Tuesday and Wednesday, getting to know his new Senators teammates after five years in Pittsburgh. HockeyScanner has more from training camp.

So, when Christina gave birth to the couple’s first child recently, it should come as no surprise when Murray told us on a Zoom call that they were keeping the name of their new daughter from the public, sharing only with friends and family.“Everything went really smooth,” Murray said. “Our baby girl is perfect. I’m very thankful to have a couple of days to be there for it.”

“It’s still a strange time, with everything going on — all these regulations and stuff like that,” said Murray, shedding his protective health mask — not the goaltender mask — to speak to reporters. “They are two guys I had some familiarity with and wanted to reach out to those guys,” Murray said. “It’s building relationships. That is what that’s about.”

With Ottawa, Murray will be part of the veteran group out to mentor a host of young talent just coming into the organization. Murray now knows himself how it feels to be displaced by a younger goalie and is looking to rebound in Ottawa after an off-year with the Penguins in 2019-20. Murray was traded to the Senators on Oct. 7 for prospect Jonathan Gruden and a second-round pick. Murray promptly signed a four-year, $25-million US contract.

Communication will be vital, especially involving those small, co-operative plays around and behind the net. Things that become second nature to long-time teammates.
