Paul Martin

San Jose's Paul Martin (LBI) targeting Saturday for return

San Jose Sharks defenseman Paul Martin (lower body) might play on Saturday.

What It Means:

Martin has missed three straight games due to the injury. He's been on the ice for two consecutive days and took part in Friday's practice though. "Two days of skating, and no real issues yet," Martin said. "I’m sure we’ll wait and see how it feels tomorrow after the first actual practice with the guys. My plan would be to play tomorrow."

Martin has an assist in four games this season. We see him netting three goals and dishing out 15 assists over the remainder of the season. Martin tied a career-high with six goals last season, adding 18 assists.
