The Afternoon Narrative: Goalie Nontroversy, Legacies and #WINSday in D.C.

1. In a bit of a surprise (apparently), Matt Murray skated with the Pens this morning, while Games 1-through-6 back-up Tristan Jarry did not.

Now, as good as Murray was this year and, memorably, in last year’s series between these two teams, the Pens obviously aren’t starting him over Marc-Andre Fleury in Game 7, and if the Caps do see him at some point, it’d probably be because Fleury struggled enough to be pulled.
