Sullivan said the team has confidence in Murray's backups.
"It’s at times like these where we have to rely on our depth, and we believe in the group that we have," he said. "I think both Casey (DeSmiith) and Tristan (Jarry) have shown that they’re NHL-caliber goalies."
Murray has suffered at least two other concussions in his professional career.
