Son of former NHLer Gord Murphy, I believe.

So has some pro hockey pedigree.

He is indeed the son of Gord Murphy, I go to school with his kids in Columbus and from what I hear, he's pretty good. Too good for the high school/travel teams at least.

He was pretty much injured his entire time with the NTDP.

He made some news this past summer though where he was a standout for Team USA at the Ivan Hlinka tournament.

There was a kid in my eight grade class named Connor Murphy who's draft age, but I don't think he plays hockey, as we live in Northern California.
