He spent the entirety of the 2024-25 season with Bloomington (ECHL) where he led team defencemen in points (34) and assists (29) while being the Bison's only player to skate in all 72 regular season games.
The Oakville, Ontario native played 257 OHL games between Kingston and Guelph, recording 100 points (14 goals, 86 assists) before turning professional in 2023. Murray played alongside current Abbotsford Canucks teammate Cooper Walker during the 2022-23 major junior season with the Guelph Storm.
