After missing the start of the year due to injury, the forward came back into the Devils line-up firing on all cylinders. In October, the Canadian became the Cardiff Devils all-time leading point scorer in the EIHL era after an assist against the Nottingham Panthers. The assist was Martin’s 433rd point in his 345th EIHL game, all as a Devil, beating the record previously set by Max Birbraer.

He has been an Elite League First Team All-Star five out his six years, along with winning the EIHL Forward of the Year three times and the League’s Most Valuable Player Award twice.

“Joey has been a huge reason why we have been able to do what we have done, over the last 6 seasons,” said Head Coach Andrew Lord.

“He has proven to be one of the top players in the league every single season, and as the league got better and better, so did he. His dedication and work ethic keeps him improving every year and he is a great role model on and off the ice.”
