Brady Martin: If the NHL isn’t an option, he’d work on the family farm

Brady Martin isn’t pessimistic about his future in the NHL, he’s just realistic.

He certainly has to give everything he can give to achieve his boyhood dream, because without effort, it’s extremely difficult to have a successful NHL career.

But having a backup plan is just as important, because the chances of reaching the best hockey league in the world, even as a top-10 prospect, are far from high.

In Adam Kimelman’s article, we can understand that the farm would only be an off-season option for now, with his recent season.

He was playing in every situation in Sault Ste. Marie with the Greyhounds this year, and when you pair his talent and versatility with his hustle and intensity, it’s usually a winning recipe.

He plays on the first wave of the short-handed, and on the first wave of the power play.

On the farm, Martin is used to doing the dirty work, and this could help him break into the NHL in a lesser role if he fails to establish himself as an impact player.

I invite you to read Kimelman’s article on Martin. You can see that he’s passionate about the family farm.

One thing’s for sure in Martin’s case: he’ll love doing his job, whether it’s in the NHL or on the farm.
