Jordan Martinook (born July 25, 1992 in Brandon , Manitoba ) is a Canadian ice hockey player who has been under contract with the Carolina Hurricanes in the National Hockey League since May 2018 . Before that he spent almost six years in the organization of the Phoenix / Arizona Coyotes .

Career

youth

Jordan Martinook was born in Brandon, but moved to Estevan , Saskatchewan at the age of two and to Leduc , Alberta six years later . He began playing ice hockey in Estevan at the age of five, before playing for the Leduc Oil Kings based in Leduc in his youth . Towards the end of the 2008/09 season Martinook moved to the Drayton Valley Thunder in the Alberta Junior Hockey League (AJHL), Alberta's highest junior league. In the following season, the left winger completed 59 games in Drayton Valley and scored 40 points scorer . He then moved to the Vancouver Giants in the Western Hockey League (WHL), one of the three highest Canadian junior leagues , where he also had offers from various universities in the United States.

In Vancouver, Martinook experienced a below-average rookie year and thus went into the 2011/12 season as the last year in which he was available for the NHL Entry Draft . Here, however, he made his breakthrough in the WHL, scoring 40 goals and placing himself among the top 15 goal scorers in the league. As a result, he was selected in the 2012 NHL Entry Draft in 58th position by the Phoenix Coyotes , who provided him with an entry contract in September of the same year .

NHL

In the Coyotes organization, which has been operating as Arizona Coyotes since summer 2014 , he initially spent two seasons with the Portland Pirates , their farm team from the American Hockey League (AHL). In December 2014, the attacker made his debut in the National Hockey League (NHL) and came to eight appearances in the highest league in North America by the end of the season. At the same time, he got 43 points in 62 games in Portland, making him the team's third-best scorer. After his contract in Arizona was extended by two years in the summer of 2015, Martinook finally made the leap into the NHL line-up of Coyotes and was there regularly from the beginning of the 2015/16 season.

After almost six years in Arizona, Martinook was handed over to the Carolina Hurricanes in May 2018, including a four-round vote in the 2018 NHL Entry Draft , who in return transferred Marcus Krüger and a third-round vote for the same draft to the Coyotes.
