Guide Note

Gritty, aggressive forward Martin Lapointe plays professional hockey for the Ottawa Senators in the National Hockey League.

Lapionte was selected tenth overall by the Detroit Red Wings during the 1991 NHL Entry Draft and earned one assist while playing in four NHL games during the 1991-1992 season. He split the next three seasons between playing for the Red Wings and their American Hockey League affiliate before becoming a regular on the Detroit roster for the 1995-1996 season.
