James Martin (born May 29, 1991) is a Canadian professional ice hockey defenseman. He is currently an unrestricted free agent who most recently played for the Toronto Marlies of the American Hockey League (AHL).

Playing career[edit]

Undrafted, Martin was signed in 2011 to a three-year entry level contract the Calgary Flames of the National Hockey League and was then assigned to affiliate, the Abbotsford Heat of the American Hockey League.[1]

In 2012 Martin was assigned to Abbotsford again, but was assigned to the Utah Grizzlies of the ECHL for the majority of the season.[2]

Martin started the 2013–14 season with Abbotsford as well but has been assigned to the Alaska Aces multiple times.[3][4] Despite helping the Aces capture the Kelly Cup, Martin was not tendered a qualifying offer by the Flames and was released as a free agent.

On September 11, 2014, Martin was signed to a one-year standard players contract with the Fort Wayne Komets of the ECHL.[5] During the 2014–15 season, in the midst of a career-high season in the ECHL with the Komets, in which he was selected to the ECHL All-Star Game, Martin was loaned to AHL affiliate, the Lake Erie Monsters on January 29, 2015.[6] Martin appeared in 7 scoreless games with the Monsters before he was returned to the Komets for the post-season.

On September 1, 2015, Martin's ECHL rights were traded by the Komets to the Idaho Steelheads in exchange for Alex Belzile.[7] Prior to the 2015–16 season, Martin was invited on a try-out basis to attend the Toronto Marlies training camp of the AHL. After impressing through pre-season, Martin opened the season with the Marlies, before securing an AHL contract after four games with the Marlies on November 26, 2015.[8]
