The Calgary Flames have signed goaltender Connor Murphy to a one-year, two-way contract for the remainder of the 2024-25 season, the NHL club announced Thursday.

Murphy, from Hudson Falls, N.Y., has split this season between the American Hockey League’s Calgary Wranglers and the ECHL’s Rapid City Rush.

With the Wranglers, Murphy has appeared in four games, posting a 2-2-0 record with a 4.14 goals-against average and an .881 save percentage.

In the ECHL, he has a record of 8-6-4 with a .912 save percentage and a 2.97 goals-against average along with one shutout.

Last year, Murphy appeared in 15 AHL contests for the Wranglers, posting a .922 save percentage, a 2.54 goals-against average, one shutout and earned a 4-4-3 record.

The 26-year-old joined the Flames organization before the 2023-24 campaign after 91-game college career split between Union College and Northeastern University.
