Murphy is battling through a groin injury, did not practice on Thursday, and will not play on Friday. The 31-year-old Murphy has been a steadying force on the blue line for the Blackhawks this season, averaging 20:33 time-on-ice and scoring 13 points (1G / 12A) in 38 games. Wyatt Kaiser will draw into the lineup as Murphy's replacement.

Murphy is battling through a groin injury and did not practice on Thursday. The 31-year-old Murphy has been a steadying force on the blue line for the Blackhawks this season, averaging 20:33 time-on-ice and scoring 13 points (1G / 12A) in 38 games. The Blackhawks return to action on Friday against the Montreal Canadiens.

Murphy played the last three games for the Blackhawks but will not play in their season finale after suffering an undisclosed injury. The 31-year-old Murphy ends the 2023-24 campaign with eight points (2G / 6A) in 46 games.

Murphy has been out since January 13th due to a groin strain but was activated from the Injured Reserve on Thursday and will return to the lineup on Friday vs. Nashville. The 31-year-old will look to improve on his horrific -19 plus/minus and add to his two goals and eight points that he had in 43 games played before the injury.

Murphy has been out of the lineup since mid-January but is targeting a return on Friday against the Nashville Predators. Murphy played the first 43 games for the Blackhawks this season, scoring eight points (2G / 6A), tallying 93 hits, and 105 blocks.

The move was retroactive to January 16th. Murphy has played all 43 games for the Blackhawks this season, scoring eight points (2G / 6A), tallying 93 hits, and 105 blocks.

Murphy has played all 43 games for the Blackhawks this season, scoring eight points (2G / 6A), tallying 93 hits, and 105 blocks. He will be replaced by Jarred Tinordi on the blue line in Tuesday's game against the San Jose Sharks.

Murphy had missed the Blackhawks' previous two games due to personal matters but will be back in Chicago's lineup Tuesday as they take on the Boston Bruins. The 29-year-old has five goals, five assists, 62 SOG and a career-high 56 PIMs through 64 games prior to missing the last two games.

Murphy has five goals, five assists, 62 SOG, 56 PIMs and a -1 plus/minus through 64 games played with Chicago but is not expected to be available Friday due to personal reasons. It will be the first game this season the 29-year-old will miss.

Murphy's move to IR is retroactive to March 12th, so he's eligible to return whenever he's back to 100 percent. In addition to Murphy, Tyler Johnson (concussion) was also placed on IR on Friday.

Murphy has missed the last three games with a concussion but will be back in the lineup in Montreal. Murphy should be back on the second pair with Jake McCabe, who also returns to the lineup.

Murphy left Thursday's game after being hit by Alex Ovechkin and did not return. Murphy suffered a concussion on the play and is in concussion protocol, which likely rules him out of the Blackhawks' back-to-back over the weekend.

Murphy has been out since February 7th with a hip injury but was activated from IR on Monday. Head coach Jeremy Colliton would not commit to him playing on Tuesday, so monitor his status during the morning skate, but all signs are pointing towards him suiting up in Columbus.

Murphy was a bit of a surprise scratch on Tuesday but Chicago announced that he'll miss at least 10 days with a hip injury. This is a huge loss for Chicago, who had Lucas Carlsson replace him in the top-4 a couple of nights ago.

Murphy suffered a groin injury in Tuesday's shootout loss to the Golden Knights and his move to LTIR provides the Blackhawks with some cap relief but also means he'll miss at least 11 games. Dennis Gilbert was recalled from Rockford (AHL) and either he or Slater Koekkoek will replace Murphy. This also helps explain the trade for Ian McCoshen on Tuesday as the team looked to address organizational depth on the back-end.

Murphy missed the Blackhawks season opener but will draw into the lineup on Thursday. Murphy, who had 13 points (5G / 8A) in 52 games last year, will skate on the third pair with Slater Koekkoek.

Murphy has landed on IR to begin the 2019-20 season but is not expected to be sidelined long-term. Slater Koekkoek will open the year as the Blackhawks No.6 defensemen while Murphy is out.
