Los Angeles Kings Getting Career Season From Alec Martinez

Peter Budaj garners most of the attention in this category, and deservedly so. What he has done during the absence of Jonathan Quick is remarkable, especially considering his original position on the depth chart as this season started.

Having said that, Martinez has made his own impressive leaps this season. Through 54 appearances, he has 7 goals and 20 assists for 27 points.

Any team will take a point every other game from a blueliner. While key players like Anze Kopitar, Marian Gaborik, and Jake Muzzin have lower point totals than usual, Martinez is in the midst of a career year.
