5-4 Halifax in OT Timo again, can we please beat these guys in regulation on Wed. (I don't think were too far off from contending if Cape Breton can beat Quebec) That's a complete non sequitur. Cape Breton can beat Quebec, good for them. I don't see how that makes us in any way a contender. |

Well the fact we can beat Quebec makes us a contender I really don't think were that far off, we've proved this season if we stick to our game we can beat anyone we've already beaten both Quebec and Rimouski.
(Saint John is the only team that has given us problems this season and you never know after Christmas we are 3rd in the division)

No mention of why he isn't playing seems suspect to me. Yes, generally if there's an injury John Moore will mention it. There seems to be silence on the issue of why he isn't playing. pbs.twimg.com/media/B4xJFRoIMAAI621.jpg:large <--- He was initially in the lineup card for warm-up. Well it will likely take another game to let the evidence speak. If he was traded this early it would have to be for a great return as I suspect Russell would not sell cheap early. |

I was wondering if anyone would mention the 3 stars when I came on here. That's pretty funny. But almost half expected.
I hope Murphy finds a good home and we get decent value for him. Obviously at this time of year a healthy scratch after a game like he had more than likely means he's gone. This will put a strain on our younger D for sure if in fact Murphy is traded. But hopefully they won't get burnt out and the experience will be an asset.

Any rumors of where Murphy may be headed? Always liked his game

Is Murphy for sure gone or was he injured in warmup or too sick to play

I noticed moose tweeted Fitzgerald playing as 7th D & nothing mentioned by them, Palov or Moore

John Moore ?@rinkrant
For those asking, Matt Murphy was a healthy scratch. GM Russell requested Coach Ducharme take him out of lineup tonight.
Glad he went out on a good note Thursday night. Lets the speculation begin.

Thats if Halifax does not get another D in return. |

I think Canvan Fitzgerald returning and playing like a top 4 right away made this deal possible. Cavan looks like a bona fide top 4 in this league.

Would not be surprised to see Murphy traded and his being held out at the request of Cam makes it appear he is. However doesn't the official trade period not open until the 19th? Not sure I have seen player held out for 3 games. Hope we got something extra for that.

Deal would be based on return and I dont think it was made because of how another player showed in one game back. Just glad they did not play a stupid game like Quebec and Moncton using traded players to try and get a couple extra points. |

I don't even know what the return is yet so its impossible to say it made it possible. |
