Sam Bowles and Dylan Row are gone... best of luck to a couple of classy guys. I'm a bit surprised Murphy let go of a defensive-minded player in Bowles, although his -10 rating was far from appealing. For his part, Row had shown flashes of maturity but was still too inconsistent on the back end.
So who, you ask, was Murphy making room for?
That would be Lyon Messier, son of none other than Mark Messier. This is a move that is obviously going to come with a lot of hype, but I think anyone would be happy to see a few fresh faces on the back end -- and no one's going to argue with the bloodline.
For anyone who's curious, here's a taste of the big boy on the blue line. I assume we should expect to see him in uniform on Friday against Amarillo
