Can’t they just put Martin on IR and not have to send down anybody?

I believe so. Great option.

Wow welcome to the NHL

Certainly possible, but he can't play for 7 days if they do. I have no idea how close he is or isn't, so if they think he'd only miss the first game or two I assume that it wouldn't be an option? Maybe they can put him on retroactively.

Who knows, whatever the move is I'm sure it'll sort itself out soon enough.
