Connor Murphy News
Murphy (right hip) was activated from IR and could return to the Blackhawks lineup on Tuesday.
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 will miss 10-14 days with a hip injury.

The Blackhawks have placed Connor Murphy (groin) on LTIR.
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 (groin) will make his season debut on Thursday.
