My name is Patrick Murphy; my friends call me “Murph”. I am nine years old, born in 2000. I have been skating since I was three. When I started in hockey, my parents didn’t know what to expect. Living in Arizona, there wasn’t much information available to them on how to get me started.
I eat, drink, play and sleep with my hockey stick! My goal is to play in the NHL. I have played hockey for six years now. The past four years, I have played travel hockey. During two of those seasons, I played on NHL affiliated teams; the Florida Jr. Panthers and the Phoenix Jr. Coyotes. I now play for the Phoenix Polar Bears Squirt A Team.
I started this blog, with my Mom and Dad to share my hockey experiences. Besides sharing my journey with you, I hope this blog will educate and inspire current and future youth hockey players (and their parents).
I have so many hockey hero’s … probably too many to list. However, I will say that Jeremy Roenick is my inspiration.

Don’t go through life without setting high expectations of yourself!
