Martin -- who continues to skate with the Islanders on a PTO -- will not be signed by the team even after Anthony Duclair (leg) suffered a long-term injury, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports Monday.

EDGE Analysis

At this point, Martin will probably end up skating with the team all the way up to the trade deadline, which is the last point when a player can sign with a team and still be eligible for the postseason. Until he puts pen to paper on a full NHL contract, Martin will just be an extra body at practice and ineligible to play in a game.

Martin (lower body) signed a professional tryout agreement with the Islanders on Friday, according to Stefen Rosner of NHL.com.

EDGE Analysis

Martin has spent 13 of his 15 NHL seasons with the Islanders, including the last six years. He had four goals, four assists and 151 hits in 57 regular-season games with the Islanders last season. He will compete for a spot on the fourth line during training camp.

Martin (lower body) is expected to undergo an MRI in the coming days, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Martin was sidelined for the final two postseason contests due to his lower-body issue. Unless the MRI results come back with something more serious, the team may not provide much of an update heading into the offseason. Even if there is a long-term concern that carries into the 2024-25 campaign, Martin's lack of offensive upside means a potential absence is unlikely to impact the majority of fantasy players.

Martin (lower body) won't play in Game 5 against the Hurricanes on Tuesday, according to Andrew Gross of Newsday.

EDGE Analysis

Martin, who didn't practice Monday, will miss his second straight contest. He has been credited with two shots on goal, three blocked shots, seven hits and 16 PIM in three outings this postseason. Simon Holmstrom or Ruslan Iskhakov will replace Martin in the lineup for Game 5.

Martin (lower body) won't play Saturday in Game 4 versus Carolina, according to Stefen Rosner of NHL.com.

EDGE Analysis

Martin played through the injury in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Hurricanes, logging just 8:16 of ice time. He has 16 PIM, seven hits and three blocked shots over three outings this postseason. Martin will be replaced in the lineup by Ruslan Iskhakov.

Martin (undisclosed) was in his usual spot during line rushes, indicating he'll play in Thursday's Game 3 versus the Hurricanes, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

Martin has played on the fourth line throughout the campaign, so his presence in the lineup isn't likely to make a big impact in fantasy. The 34-year-old has no points, 19 hits and 21 PIM over his last 10 outings.

Martin will be a game-time decision versus Carolina for Game 3 on Thursday due to an undisclosed injury, Arthur Staple of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Martin averaged just 10:12 of ice time through the first two games of the series before picking up his undisclosed injury. If the veteran winger misses time, it's expected Ruslan Iskhakov will get a look on the fourth line, though both Oliver Wahlstrom and Simon Holmstrom could be in contention for a lineup spot as well.

Martin (undisclosed) will play Saturday against the Rangers, per Stefen Rosner of NHL.com.

EDGE Analysis

Martin will be back on the fourth line after being injured in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Canadiens. He has picked up four goals, four assists, 43 PIM and 147 hits in 54 games this season.

Martin (undisclosed) left Thursday's game versus the Canadiens in the third period, Ethan Sears of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Martin blocked a shot and didn't return to the contest. His status for Saturday's game versus the Rangers has yet to be determined and there was no update on him after the game.

Martin scored during Monday's 4-3 overtime win against the Flyers.

EDGE Analysis

That's the veteran's fourth goal and eighth point through 49 games on the campaign. With just 42 shots on net, Martin is taking less than a shot per game and averages only 9:19 of ice time per contest. The fourth-liner's offensive upside is limited.
