Maple Leafs Goaltender Caught Cheating Once Again: Will The NHL Take Action?

Matt Murray has been accused of 'cheating' this season, due to his repeated knocking of the net off its posts. This behavior has caused stoppages of play, and Murray was caught doing it once again in a recent game.

(Here is the situation that went viral from 4 months ago)


It was just the start...


While it's understandable for a goalie to accidentally dislodge the net once, Murray's repeated incidents raise suspicions. If it were so easy to knock the net off, more goalies would do it.

A Twitter post by EverydaySens highlights Murray's latest infraction and questions the goalie's motives. The post also includes a video of the incident for reference.


It appears that Murray may not have a chance to continue his net-dislodging ways in the playoffs, as Ilya Samsonov is likely to take over as the starter.
