Murray, 28, was forced to leave the game last in first period after Red Wings forward Lucas Raymond accidently collided with the netminder, resulting in an awkward fall.
Sunday's backup goaltender, Ilya Samsonov, entered the game in relief.
Murray stopped five of seven shots in 16:16 of ice time with the Red Wings leading the Maple Leafs 2-1 at the time of the incident.
