The Canadian Hockey League's Top Prospect game will have a Thunder Bay flavour.

Goalie Matt Murray, who plays between the pipes for the Ontario Hockey League's Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds, will play for Team Orr at the annual showcase, which features the top undrafted junior hockey players playing major junior hockey in North America.

Murray, who turns 18 in May, is 11-15-1 with a 4.15 goals against average this season, his second with the Greyhounds. He's the No. 2-ranked draft-eligible North American goaltender heading into the 2012 NHL entry draft.

Team Cherry, named for Hockey Night in Canada icon Don Cherry, will be coached by retired NHLer Mark Recchi.
