Transcript: Martin St. Louis’ Hall of Fame Acceptance Speech

On Monday November 12th, Martin St. Louis was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame. After a video highlight package of his career was shown, current members of the Tampa Bay Lightning came out on the stage to celebrate his induction. He was then presented with a plaque by former teammate and fellow Hall of Fame member, Dave Andreychuk. What follows is a transcription of his acceptance speech.

For the sake of clarity and fluency, extraneous uses of the phrases “and”, “but”, “um”, “obviously” and “you know” have been omitted.

My first word on this page is ‘Wow’.
