Hurricanes' Spencer Martin: Sent down to minors
Martin was reassigned to AHL Chicago on Wednesday.
Martin effectively cost himself the backup job in Carolina after going 2-3-1 with a 4.38 GAA and .825 save percentage in his last six outings. Even with Pyotr Kochetkov now healthy after suffering a concussion, the Hurricanes were concerned enough about Martin's play that they signed journeyman backstop Dustin Tokarski to an NHL deal Monday and brought him up to the NHL in favor of Martin on Wednesday.

Hurricanes' Spencer Martin: Chased from net after two periods
Martin allowed five goals on 28 shots in two periods of action Saturday in a 6-0 loss to Florida. Yaniv Perets surrendered one goal on seven shots in relief.
Carolina didn't show up Saturday, and Martin has been struggling. He has surrendered 10 goals in his last two outings, both of which were losses against the Panthers. At this point, Martin is a challenging goaltender to trust, and the Hurricanes may need to search for a veteran option to help between the pipes if injuries to Frederik Andersen (knee) and Pyotr Kochetkov (concussion) continue to linger.

Hurricanes' Spencer Martin: Going back-to-back
Martin will protect the road goal versus Florida on Saturday, George Richards of Florida Hockey Now reports.
Martin will play both ends of a back-to-back series with the Panthers after allowing five goals on 29 shots in Friday's 6-3 loss. He has a 3-3-1 record with a 3.62 GAA and an .850 save percentage this season. Yaniv Perets will be Martin's backup because Frederik Andersen (knee) and Pyotr Kochetkov (concussion) are unavailable due to injuries.

Hurricanes' Spencer Martin: Blitzed by Florida in defeat
Martin conceded five goals on 29 shots in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Panthers. The sixth marker was an empty-netter.
Martin was attempting to win his third straight game Friday, but Florida struck for three third-period goals to defeat Carolina on home ice. The Ontario native is Carolina's de facto No. 1 netminder at the moment, as Frederik Andersen (knee) and Pyotr Kochetkov (concussion) are working their way back to full health. Martin is 3-3-1 with an .850 save percentage and a 3.62 GAA through eight appearances.

Hurricanes' Spencer Martin: Facing Panthers
Martin will be between the home pipes versus Florida on Friday, according to Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site.
Martin will make his third straight start as Frederik Andersen (knee surgery) and Pyotr Kochetkov (concussion) are out of action. Martin is 3-2-1 with a 3.33 GAA and an .856 save percentage in seven appearances this season. Yaniv Perets will back up Martin on Friday.

Hurricanes' Spencer Martin: Second straight win
Martin made 19 saves in a 4-3 win over the Rangers on Wednesday.
The Canes played a full 60-minute game and staged a third-period comeback to earn the win. Martin earned his second consecutive win after taking over the starter's reins due to injuries to both Frederik Andersen (knee) and Pyotr Kochetkov (concussion). There have been rumors that the Canes might go out and trade for a veteran netminder to help Kochetkov this season, but Martin's recent winning efforts could quash that notion fast. That is if he can start stopping a few more pucks. He's allowed seven snipes in those two straight wins.

Hurricanes' Spencer Martin: Expected starter Wednesday
Martin is set to start at home against the Rangers on Wednesday, per Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site.
Martin has a 2-2-1 record, 3.40 GAA and .854 save percentage in six appearances in 2024-25. He allowed four goals on 19 shots en route to a 6-4 victory over Dallas in his last start Monday. The Rangers have an impressive 12-7-1 record and rank 11th offensively with 3.35 goals per game, but they're on a three-game losing streak.

Hurricanes' Spencer Martin: Bailed out by offense Monday
Martin made 15 saves in Monday's 6-4 win over the Stars.
Getting his first start since Pyotr Kochetkov (concussion) was injured, Martin didn't exactly do much to inspire confidence that he can handle the workload of a No. 1 goalie. Carolina was facing a 3-1 deficit heading into the third period before the offense erupted, and the 29-year-old netminder still gave up a tying tally to make it 4-4 with just over five minutes left before the Hurricanes put the game away. Martin is 2-2-1 in six appearances this season with a 3.40 GAA and an .854 save percentage, and it wouldn't be a shock if Yaniv Perets got a look between the pipes Wednesday against the Rangers.

Hurricanes' Spencer Martin: Expected to start
Martin will patrol the home crease against Dallas on Monday, per Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site.
Martin has a 1-2-1 record with one shutout, a 3.21 GAA and an .870 save percentage through five appearances this season. He will occupy the No. 1 goalie role for the Hurricanes because of injuries to Frederik Andersen (knee) and Pyotr Kochetkov (concussion). Yaniv Perets was recalled from AHL Chicago on Sunday to be the backup netminder. Dallas is tied for 11th in the league with 3.42 goals per game in 2024-25.

Hurricanes' Spencer Martin: Takes shootout loss in short outing
Martin stopped one shot in overtime and two of three shootout attempts, taking the loss in a 5-4 shootout defeat to the Blue Jackets after entering the game for Pyotr Kochetkov (upper body).
Martin's outing was a short one, and Sean Monahan had the lone shootout tally to decide the game. Depending on the severity of Kochetkov's injury, Martin may be set for No. 1 duties in goal moving forward -- there was no update after the game. Martin is 1-2-1 with 10 goals allowed on 77 shots through five appearances this season, with his lone win being a shutout. The Hurricanes' next game is a tough one at home versus the Stars on Monday.

Hurricanes' Spencer Martin: Set to guard road net
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.

Hurricanes' Spencer Martin: Concedes four goals Thursday
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.

Hurricanes' Spencer Martin: Earns first career shutout
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.

Hurricanes' Spencer Martin: Slated to start
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.

Hurricanes' Spencer Martin: Pressed into action Wednesday
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.

Hurricanes' Spencer Martin: Summoned from minors
Martin was recalled from AHL Chicago on Monday.
Martin is back with the big club after a brief trip to the minors Sunday. He made 23 saves on 28 shots in Saturday's 6-4 loss to Colorado. Due to the absence of Frederik Andersen (lower body), Martin will probably occupy the backup role behind Pyotr Kochetkov in Monday's road game against Vegas.

Hurricanes' Spencer Martin: Reassigned to AHL
Martin was reassigned to AHL Chicago on Sunday.
Martin will head back to the minors following his season debut with the Canes on Saturday, where he allowed five goals in a 6-4 loss to Colorado. If Frederik Andersen (lower body) can't return prior to Carolina's next game Monday, Martin will likely be recalled to backup Pyotr Kochetkov.

Hurricanes' Spencer Martin: Not great in season debut
Martin gave up five goals on 28 shots in Saturday's 6-4 loss to the Avalanche. The sixth goal was an empty-netter.
Martin hadn't played at any level in over two weeks, and the Hurricanes traveled to Colorado earlier Saturday due to bad weather in Denver, so there were some extenuating circumstances in this performance. Still, the 29-year-old netminder didn't make a great first impression in his season debut. Martin will likely continue to serve as backup to Pyotr Kochetkov moving forward, at least until Frederik Andersen (lower body) can get back in action. If Martin is still with the big club next weekend, he may be called on for a start in a back-to-back at home -- the Hurricanes face the Senators next Saturday and the Blues next Sunday after wrapping up their road trip this week.

Hurricanes' Spencer Martin: Set for season debut
Martin will start on the road versus the Avalanche on Saturday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.
Martin will make his season debut in this contest. He has been on the NHL roster since Oct. 28, filling in as backup to Pyotr Kochetkov in the absence of Frederik Andersen (lower body). The Avalanche have averaged 3.29 goals per game this season despite a mediocre 6-8-0 record.

Hurricanes' Spencer Martin: Called up by Carolina
Martin was recalled from AHL Chicago on Monday.
Martin made 19 appearances in the NHL last year between Columbus and Carolina, and he logged a 7-9-2 record, 3.30 GAA and .889 save percentage. He'll rejoin the Hurricanes ahead of Monday's game against the Canucks, but it seems unlikely that he'll see much playing time as long as Frederik Andersen and Pyotr Kochetkov are healthy.
