| | Minus: Undersized for an NHL Defender... Risky decision making at ties... |
| Organizational Comments: NHL Central Scouting - Chris Edwards "Ryan's work on the power play is oustanding, he sees the ice very well and is creative, [has] excellent passing ability and a great shot that he gets through to the net. (He's) also an excellent all-round skater. He's got real good mobility. He's a bit of a gambler. He does move the puck well, but he's going to have to concentrate on making good plays. |
What GRC says: Fall 2021 Coming off an award winning season, the reigning AHL defenseman of the year should be a shot in the arm for the Griffins offense and also a spark for the powerplay. While his defensive game is underrated, his offensive calling card will provide a missing element for the GR blueline and perhaps a look on the parent clubs back end. Murphy is a high end player and should be a difference maker from day one.
