Martin stopped 17 of 21 shots in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Devils. Martin made his third start of the season, and while that's a small sample size to draw conclusions, he's been all over the place. He recorded a 24-save shutout win over the Senators on Nov. 16, but he gave up at least four goals in the other two starts. Through four total appearances, as he also worked in relief against Utah on Nov. 13, he's gone 1-2-0 with a 3.25 GAA and an .868 save percentage.

Martin is expected to start on the road against the Devils on Thursday, per Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site. Martin has a 1-1-0 record, 2.79 GAA and .891 save percentage across three outings in 2024-25. He posted a 24-save shutout over Ottawa in his last start Saturday. The Devils rank eighth offensively with 3.43 goals per game, so they are likely to be a challenging adversary.

Martin posted a 25-save shutout in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Senators. The Hurricanes were able to score in each period, and Martin did his part to quiet a tough offense. This was Martin's first career shutout as well as his first win over three appearances in 2024-25. He's now allowed six goals on 56 shots while going 1-1-0. It's unclear if Pyotr Kochetkov (undisclosed) will be ready to play Sunday versus the Blues -- if not, Martin could go back-to-back or Yaniv Perets could be in line for his second career appearance.

Martin is expected to patrol the home crease Saturday against Ottawa, per Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site. Martin will make his second NHL start in 2024-25 because Frederik Andersen (lower body) and Pyotr Kochetkov (undisclosed) are both unavailable. The 29-year-old Martin has stopped 25 of 31 shots in two appearances with the Hurricanes this season, including a relief outing against Utah on Wednesday after Kochetkov sustained an injury. Ottawa sits 11th in the league this campaign with 3.44 goals per game.

Martin allowed a goal on three shots in relief of Pyotr Kochetkov (undisclosed) in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to Utah. Martin played 10:55 of the contest and was pulled for an extra attacker as the Hurricanes tried to mount a comeback. This was Martin's second appearance of the season, and he's allowed six goals on 31 shots (.806 save percentage). If Kochetkov misses time and Frederik Andersen (lower body) remains out, Martin would likely take over in goal, while the Hurricanes could call up Yaniv Perets from AHL Chicago to fill the backup role.
