Murray will start Tuesday in Detroit.

Murray stopped 37 of 38 shots in the Penguins win over the Hurricanes on Sunday. Murray has won four of his last five starts while posting a 1.78 GAA and .943 SV%. The Penguins can clinch playoff spot tonight if they win tonight and they draw an excellent matchup with a Red Wings team that has a ton of injury issues right now.
