St. Albert raised Matt Murray made his NHL debut last night with the Dallas Stars.
Murray made 19 saves in his NHL debut, helping Dallas to its third win in four games. The goalie had the names of five local players who passed away in the Humboldt Broncos bus crash painted on his helmet for his appearance.
First game, first save, and what a beauty it was 👏
