The Minnesota Wild have sent a former first round draft choice to the waiver wire. 

On Monday it was revealed that defenseman Ryan Muprhy, who was the number twelve pick in the 2011 National Hockey League Entry Draft when he was selected by the Carolina Hurricanes, has been sent to the waiver wire. 

Murphy has bounced around between the NHL and American Hockey League ever since being picked up by the Hurricanes, appearing in just 151 NHL games despite being selected 6 years ago. 

That being said at 24-years-old a defenseman who once showed so much promise is still entering his prime years. As a result it wouldn't be a shock to see a rival NHL team in need of help on defense consider the option of picking him up.

We will know more tomorrow when the waiver reports comes in.
