After losing out to PSU for Gavin McKenna and The Ice Man being traded to Edmonton and singing a pro deal, MSU hockey was feeling a bit depressed and sitting with two open roster spots. Well, some good news came in that MSU has signed Porter Martone, Philadelphia’s #6 overall pick in this years draft.
Martone is a forward and we will likely see him in some line shifts with some other notable NHL draft picks such as Cayden Lindstrom, Charlie Stramel, Eric Nilson, and Shane Vansaghi. Martone is known as a playmaker and hopefully he’ll learn his new teammates’ tendencies and be able to create plays for them.
