A wild three days has finally come to an end for defenceman Ryan Murphy, who signed a one-year deal with the Minnesota Wild.

Murphy, Carolina’s first-round pick in 2011, spent parts of the past five seasons with the Hurricanes.

They traded him to Calgary along with backup goalie Eddie Lack on Thursday night, but the Flames waived Murphy less than 24 hours later.

Under his deal with the Wild, Murphy will make $700,000 at the NHL level or $350,000 in the minors.
