The ECAC Rookie of the Year in 1993, Burke Murphy '96 started his hockey career at St. Lawrence off with a bang and never looked back. After leading the team with 19 goals as a rookie, he led the team in both goals and points the next three seasons, finishing his career second on the Saints' all-time goal scoring list with 99 goals. He added 75 assists for 174 points in his career.

A Second-Team All-America selection and Hobey Baker Finalist as a senior, Murphy signed a contract with the Calgary Flames and spent two years playing in both the AHL and IHL. He then spent four years playing professional hockey in Europe, with three seasons in Germany and one in Italy. 

After retiring from hockey in 2002, Murphy returned to his native Ontario and currently works as a senior financial analyst in the Canadian government. He lives in Ottawa with his wife, Tammy, and their daughters, Addison and Alexa.
