Earlier today, Colorado Avalanche prospect Spencer Martin was named the AHL Player of the Week. The 22-year old netminder went 2-0 this week while stopping 73 of the 74 shots he faced.
Friday night, Martin turned aside all 39 shots he faced, against the Rockford IceHogs, giving him his first shutout of the season in the 6-0 Rampage victory. Then on Saturday, Martin stopped 34 of the 35 shots against as the Rampage beat the Chicago Wolves 2-1.
The two victories over the weekend put San Antonio alone in second place in the AHL’s Western Conference.
