Chicago rejects, add a 1st
Galchenyuk is washed
Zaitsev is a dump
and Balcer is an ok prospect
So for Chicago to accept remove Zaitsev, and add Formenton or Batherson

Pffft! The classic overvaluing of a 3rd pair d-man.

Murphy doesn't get that good of a prospect. Balcers and a mid round pick is much closer

Lol. No he's not.

Just because he's the best d-man on a terrible team like Chicago, doesn't make him a top 4. He's a #5 guy. No offence to his game, can kill penalties sometimes but can't be relied upon to consistently kill them. That's not a top 4 guy at all.

Have you watched him play??
Murphy is a very good penalty killer and was a good reason why Chicago had a great pk last season and he was on the top unit, Murphy has a good physicality to his game and is good in Blackhawks zone. Murphy is definitely a top 4 defensemen, and the only people who don't agree are Toronto fans, who also wanted him before the Kapanen trade

I've actually worked for his junior team while he was there and followed him a lot. So in positive I know him better than you think.
& Kapanen for Murphy never worked out for a reason. Toronto management knew Kapanen was worth more. They weren't gonna settle for that low of a package. That should tell you quite a bit about his value.

He's not a top 4.

I have to disagree here with you Murphy is an excellent top 4 Dman, he is probably worth around late ish first pretty much 20+ and that's about it but he would be an excellent addition to any teams defensive core

Ok you watched him 8 years ago, I've watched Murphy every hawks game since he joined the team, Murphy as a Blackhawks has been great defensively, been great on the PK, and has been very physical for us, so I really don't believe you watch his games as a Blackhawk, because the people who watch him and study his game in the past few season know he's a good top 4 defensemen and is worth a late 1st or a 2nd and a decent prospect

Cool. I mean not many stats support him being a top 4 d-man at all.

sure, I'll trust a Hawks fan on the opinion of a Hawks player. Hawks fans always seem to know the right answer grimace
