The ripples of the Martin St. Louis-Ryan Callahan trade could linger for years for the Lightning organization. Look beyond just Callahan, Stralman and Boyle to what else was influence and affected by the March 5, 2014 transaction.
Before game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals, I was listening to a local radio show on my way to lunch. The host asked "Who won the Martin St. Louis - Ryan Callahan trade?" With the conversation also turning towards St. Louis’ actions leading up to the trade, the callers flooded in to share their opinions. I listened with great interest to see what the average fan thought about the trade.
