Mike Martin

hockey cardMike Martin
BUST
 Retired player.

Signed insert card purchased at a card shop on September 21, 2012.

Mike Martin was drafted in 1995 by the New York Rangers (3rd round, 65th overall).  He played 1 more season in the WHL as an overage junior, then went on to spend the next 7 seasons in the minor leagues. Following that, he spent another 6 seasons playing in Europe. Overall, he played pro for 13 seasons.

The blue autograph against the blue uniforms of the Windsor Spitfires is a bit hard to see. Perhaps Signature Rookies should have asked Martin to sign his cards in black marker instead.
