A major life event happened to Kermit Murphy this season when he learned he had a half-brother, Ty Murphy. It seems that in his playing days, his father Tig Murphy had done a little more scoring than people previously thought, which resulted in Kermit unexpectedly having to learn a whole lot of unpleasant details about dear old dad's sex life before welcoming his baby brother to the team. With Murphy taking an increased role on the team in his third junior season, it made sense for him to also take the younger Murphy under his wing and teach him a thing or two as the latter prepares for the SHL draft at the end of the season. It's been quite a shock not only learning he has a brother, but also being teammates with that person, but Kermit has tried to take it in stride and ensure that he's being the best leader and half-brother he can be while leading the league in goal scoring.
