McLeod has missed the last 13 games with a high ankle sprain suffered against the New York Rangers on Nov. 26. He has three goals and five assists in 21 games so far this season.
He’s set to rejoin the fourth line, flanked by Dylan Holloway and Derek Ryan.
Murray meanwhile has been having back issues, something he’s dealt with his entire career and hasn’t appeared in a game since Nov. 21. The defenceman has three assists in 13 games this campaign.
It was reported by Sportsnet’s Mark Spector on Sunday that the 29-year-old would miss up to a month.
