It’s been no secret that Matt Martin will be leaving the Islanders to hit free agency. The hard hitting forward has drew interest from six teams; the Bruins, Canadiens, Leafs, Kings, Flames and Red Wings.
Arthur Staple says that Martin is not bitter, he understands it’s a business. On the ice Matt Martin is a physical presence, he leads the league in hits every year. The problem with him getting $3 million a year is his lack of offense.
Martin isn’t a scorer, he just set a career high in goals with 10 this past year.
