History
2005-06: Having battled various injuries throughout the year, Martin managed to finish third on Spruce Grove with 44 points (15 goals, 29 assists) last season. He suffered a concussion early in the year on a dangerous hit from behind by Fort Saskatchewan defenseman Ian Barteaux. Martin also had a groin injury that prevented him from participating in the league�s annual All-Star game. He did play in the first-ever CJAHL Prospects Game, however, as well as the Viking Cup.2006-07: Martin got off to a slow start in his rookie year in the USHL, but he finished with 56 points in 59 games and ranked second on the team in scoring, seeing time on the power play.
If Martin had been born just eight days later, he would have been eligible in 2007 instead of 2006, when he was taken 195th overall by the Thrashers.
Talent Analysis
Martin is a skilled center who is a good playmaker and solid defensively. Good work ethic. His skating is still sub-par, however.
