Senior, Forward, Toronto, Ontario

During his collegiate hockey career at Clarkson University from 2021 to 2025, Ayrton Martino established himself as a dynamic playmaking winger in ECAC Hockey. Across four NCAA seasons with the Golden Knights, he debuted with a standout 2021–22 freshman campaign that earned him ECAC Hockey All-Rookie Team honors. Over 131 collegiate games, Martino totaled 99 points, culminating in a dominant senior 2024–25 season where he exploded for 25 goals and 26 assists for 51 points in 39 games. His explosive final collegiate season earned him AHCA East First Team All-American, ECAC All-Tournament Team, and ECAC Third All-Star Team accolades, as well as selection as a finalist for the Hobey Baker Memorial Award. Beyond his on-ice performance, Martino actively engaged in team-led community and athletic department initiatives during his time at Clarkson, including:

  • Golden Knights Youth Hockey Clinics: Volunteering at local youth hockey practices and skills development sessions in Potsdam.
  • Clarkson Athletics Community Outreach: Participating in athletic department community engagement events and visits to local schools and organizations.
  • Student-Athlete Mentorship & Service: Engaging in campus-led charitable drives and youth community outreach throughout his four collegiate seasons.
Prior to entering college, Martino starred in junior hockey for the St. Michael's Buzzers in the OJHL and the Omaha Lancers in the USHL, where he recorded 56 points in 38 games during the 2020–21 season and earned USHL All-Rookie and Second All-Star Team honors. His dynamic speed and offensive instincts led to his selection in the third round (73rd overall) by the Dallas Stars in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft. Following the conclusion of his senior collegiate campaign at Clarkson, Martino officially turned professional on March 24, 2025, signing a two-year entry-level contract with the Dallas Stars and joining their AHL affiliate, the Texas Stars, for the remainder of the 2024–25 season.
