Quick someone else post something, I feel like Jakey with multiple posts in a row.
I'm not complaining.
Really good period for him in all 3 zones. I chose not to disagree with anyone, but I never did get all of the 'bottom pairing' talk about him that has been tossed around on the board this season.
This year started up and down for Murphy and Stone. Then Murphy was benched for a couple of games and Stone was taken off the OEL pairing. Since then I think they bothhave been progressing nicely.They still have moments of head scratching, but most of us forget how hard it is to play D in the NHL.
I don't think many people would disagree with your assessment of Murphy. People were down on him early because last season he seemed to stagnate and was flat out bad early. He's been playing very well in 2016. Offensive upside is questionable but he's still pretty young.
I agree.
