Lecavalier shares thoughts on St. Louis trade

Former Lighting forward Vincent Lecavalier, via The Tampa Tribune, reflects on his time with the franchise and the Cup run from a decade ago. He, Brad Richards and Martin St. Louis are playoff-bound again, but not with the Lightning.

“It’s pretty amazing,” Lecavalier said. “You never thought of that five years ago. Or even last year. Obviously, Marty going this year is kind of a shock, for me and a lot of people. ... Times and things change.”

St. Louis, the final Lightning link to the '04 team, was traded to the New York Rangers in March.

“It was definitely weird,” Lecavalier said. “I remember texting Brad and saying imagine if this goes through — he’s the last guy.”
