The Columbus Blue Jackets appear to be dealing with some drama in net, making today's move even more surprising.

Veteran Spencer Martin officially placed on waivers



After landing in Columbus this past summer, 28-year old veteran Spencer Martin has officially been placed on waivers by the team today, as announced by beat reporter Mark Scheig.

News: #CBJ has placed Spencer Martin on waivers.




Martin was a third-round pick back in the 2013 NHL Draft, and after getting a break over the past two years in Vancouver, many believed coming to Columbus would give him an opportunity to win a significant role.

Unfortunately, in 13 games played this season, Martin has put together a 3.65 GAA and an .887 save percentage, and even with the drama surrounding Elvis Merzlikins, he's now been placed on waivers with his future in doubt.
