Murphy, 20, earned 18 points (1g, 17a) in 16 games with the Checkers since being assigned to Charlotte on Jan. 24. The Aurora, Ont., native leads Charlotte defensemen in assists, and was on an 11-game assist streak at the time of his recall – the longest by an AHL player since the 2011-12 season and longest by an AHL defenseman since 2008-09.
