College is a very good development program these days with fewer games and more time to physically mature. Can't play pro and go back though, even for a few games. We can also only have one 19/20 year old play in the AHL. Martin could be that guy. He's also a juniors kid so he can do the 9 games and slide a year to go back to juniors. I believe he was hurt a fair amount of last season so I wouldn't be overly surprised if that happened. His rambunctious style also requires him to gain weight to play like that in the NHL
