It's unclear at this time when he will be available to return. In 14 appearances this season, he has provided three goals, one assist, 18 shots on net and 46 blocked shots.

  • Golden Knights' Alec Martinez: Tallies twice in win

    Martinez scored a pair of goals on five shots and went plus-4 in Friday's 5-0 win over the Sharks.

    Martinez and Alex Pietrangelo combined for three goals and five points in a dominant showing from Vegas' top defensive pairing. This was Martinez's first multi-point outing since January 21, 2023. The 36-year-old is up to three goals, one assist, 15 shots on net, 36 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating through 10 contests overall. His fantasy value will remain limited in leagues that don't reward blocks.

  • Golden Knights' Alec Martinez: Plucks apple in win

    Martinez posted an assist and four blocked shots in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Blackhawks.

    Martinez helped out on a Paul Cotter power-play goal in the third period. The 36-year-old defenseman doesn't see much power-play time, and what little he gets will likely dry up when Alex Pietrangelo (upper body) is ready to return. Martinez has a goal, an assist, five blocked shots, three shots on net and two hits over two contests this season. He's settled in quickly with his usual top-four role since returning from an upper-body injury.

Martinez played in 77 games last year, tallying three goals and 14 points while adding a league-most 244 blocked shots.

  • Golden Knights' Alec Martinez: Scores in Tuesday's win

    Martinez scored a goal and blocked five shots in Tuesday's 9-3 win over the Panthers in Game 5.

    Nine years to the day after he secured the Kings' 2014 Stanley Cup title with an overtime goal, Martinez came up big again in a championship-clinching win. The defenseman scored both of his goals this postseason over the last four games, and he finished with seven points and 57 blocked shots in 22 outings. The 35-year-old is entering the final year of his contract in 2023-24, but he figures to play it with the Golden Knights as a steady defensive presence in their top four.
