Martin is being rumored as a top candidate for the Sharks to buy out, Kevin Kurz of The Athletic Bay Area reports.

Martin has skated to a minus-4 rating against the Golden Knights through three games of the conference semifinals.

Martin will suit up against the Canucks playing alongside Brent Burns on Saturday, Kevin Kurz of The Athletic Bay Area reports.
