Starting against Detroit Martin will patrol the home crease Monday against Detroit, per Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site.

Impact Martin, who stopped 15 of 17 shots in one period of relief against the Rangers on Saturday, will make his first start for Columbus because Elvis Merzlikins (illness) isn't ready to return yet. Jet Greaves, who was added to the Columbus roster Monday on an emergency basis, is slated to serve as the backup goalie.

Appears in relief Martin made 15 saves in relief Saturday in a 5-3 win over the Rangers.

Impact Starter Elvis Merzlikins, who earned the win, left after two frames with illness. Martin surrendered a goal to Will Cuylie at 10:53 that pulled the Rangers to within two goals, and then Chris Krieder scored a power-play goal with Igor Shesterkin on the bench for an extra attacker.

Claimed by Columbus Martin was claimed off waivers by the Blue Jackets on Friday, Aaron Portzline of The Athletic reports.

Impact The Blue Jackets needed help between the pipes as they have Elvis Merzlikins as their starter, but had only Daniil Tarasov (knee) and Aaron Dell as the backups. While Martin struggled last season, going 11-15-1 with a 3.99 GAA and .871 save percentage for the Canucks, he could help the Blue Jackets in a backup role.

On waivers Thursday Martin was placed on waivers by the Canucks on Thursday.

Impact The netminder was ranked the third goalie on the depth chart, behind Thatcher Demko and Casey DeSmith. Martin had a terrible 2022-23 campaign with the Canucks, going 11-15-1 with a 3.99 GAA and .871 save percentage before he was sent to the minors on Feb. 14. He redeemed himself with AHL Abbotsford as he was 7-7-2 with a 2.43 GAA and .916 save percentage. Look for Martin to be recalled if Demko or DeSmith are injured.

Designated for waivers Martin was placed on waivers Monday for the purpose of reassignment.

Impact Assuming he clears, Martin will likely be sent down to the minors Tuesday after serving as the backup for Monday's clash with Detroit. Given the decision to reassign Martin, the team appears set to get Thatcher Demko (lower body) back in the lineup against the Rangers on Wednesday, though it has yet to be officially confirmed by the club.

Facing Red Wings Martin will guard the visiting net versus Detroit on Saturday, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.

Impact Martin has lost his last nine games, last winning Dec. 27 versus San Jose. He is 11-14-1 with a 3.95 GAA and .873 save percentage overall. Martin will try to turn things around against a Red Wings team that ranks 26th in home scoring with 3.04 goals per game at Little Caesars Arena.

Gets starting nod versus Rangers Martin will be between the pipes on the road against the Rangers on Wednesday.

Impact Martin is currently mired in an eight-game losing streak during which he's posted a 4.95 GAA and an .847 save percentage. Even with his struggles, the 27-year-old Ontario native has continued to split the netminding duties with Collin Delia. Given his struggles, Martin will almost certainly be relegated to the No. 2 role once Thatcher Demko (lower body) is cleared to return.

FEBRUARY 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Losing streak reaches nine Martin allowed four goals on 21 shots in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to the Rangers.

Impact Chris Kreider opened the scoring against Martin 6:53 into the game, and the Canucks were playing catch-up the rest of the night. Martin has suffered nine consecutive regulation losses, and he's allowed at least three goals in each of those defeats. Few goalies have less fantasy value at the moment.
