Spencer Martin Starts For Hurricanes Saturday
14 seconds agoCarolina Hurricanes goaltender Spencer Martin will man the crease in Saturday's matchup against Ottawa. The Hurricanes are forced to turn to their third glove due to injuries to Frederik Andersen (lower body) and Pyotr Kochetkov (undisclosed). With recent reports suggesting that Andersen might need surgery, we could see Martin a lot more often going forward. The 29-year-old has made one start and one relief performance this season, registering a 5.20 goals-against average and a .805 save percentage. It's been a struggle for Martin, but he plays behind a very strong team. The bookmakers consider Carolina a -167 favorite on Saturday, meaning Martin is expected to collect his first victory of the campaign.
