Jacques Martin assesses the Penguins defensemen
Penguins assistant coach Jacques Martin is in charge of assessing the team's defensemen.Two things have been especially gratifying for Penguins assistant coach Jacques Martin this season, and they are somewhat related.
Martin, who coaches the team’s defensemen, has been pleased with how well the Penguins have been able to cover for several injuries, nobody more or better than the pairing of Justin Schultz and Ian Cole.
“They’ve been asked to play higher roles,” Martin said. “They’ve answered very well.”
