Murray’s LTIR designation signifies that the Maple Leafs will not buy out the remainder of his contract. If the Maple Leafs were to entertain this option, they would incur a $687,500 cap hit for the upcoming season and a $2 million tax for the 2024-25 season. Toronto would also be ineligible to buy out Murray’s contract due to his injury designation.Although Murray is genuinely injured and unable to start the season, this designation also provides practical cap solutions for the Maple Leafs.
