Ryan Murphy: Hitting open market

Murphy did not receive a qualifying offer from the Devils ahead of Tuesday's deadline.

New Jersey acquired Murphy back in January, but the 26-year-old never found his footing in the Devils organization, appearing in just one game and failing to record a point. Barring a big jump in performance, Murphy almost certainly will spend most of next season in the minors, but it won't be with AHL Binghamton (New Jersey's AHL affiliate).
