It will be the third season in a Generals uniform for Ondrej who has become an extremely popular player with the fans.

"Having Marty back with the Generals this season gives our blue line a big boost", says Head Coach Peter South. "Ondrej is the type of player the forces opposing forwards to be accountable. If you come into our zone and try and dangle the puck when Marty is on the ice you'll very quickly find yourself on the seat of your pants looking up at the ceiling".
