The Rangers traded for St. Louis in 2014, in a deal that sent the Tampa captain to NY in exchange for Rangers captain Ryan Callahan. St. Louis took some time before scoring his first Rangers goal, a shorthanded tally in Vancouver. But Marty saved his best for the postseason, helping the Rangers reach the Stanley Cup Finals for the first time in 20 years. Though it was a short stint with the Rangers before his retirement, St. Louis scored two of the more memorable goals in recent Rangers history.
From Rangers fans everywhere, Congrats Marty!
