New York Rangers forward Martin St. Louis will return to Tampa Bay for the first time since he was hastily traded away from the organization at his request last season.

On Tuesday's edition of Insider Trading on TSN, Pierre LeBrun noted that St. Louis has not spoken to Lightning general manager Steve Yzerman since the trade.

Although St. Louis has said he expects the worst from the fans, the organization will honor him with a montage.

LeBrun said on Tuesday that "The Lightning will have a video montage for Marty St. Louis during the first period, as they did for Vincent Lecavalier when he came back with Philly last year."

St. Louis spent 13 seasons with the Lightning, winning one Stanley Cup, three Lady Byng Memorial trophies, two Art Ross trophies, one Hart trophy and one Ted Lindsay Award.
