The Tampa Bay Times describes how some people suggest Lightning captain Martin St. Louis' roster spot on Team Canada would be more assured if linemate Steven Stamkos was certain to be healed from a broken right tibia and able to play.
Asked if he buys into that, Stamkos said, "No. Marty deserves a spot on that team regardless of any player, whether they're injured or not. … He's a leader, he's the captain for a reason and probably should have been on the last (Olympic) team."
St. Louis, on the Steve Yzerman factor: "I don't want to be on the team because Steve Yzerman is my boss. I want to be on the team because Marty St. Louis can bring something. We'll see."
St. Louis, comparing these Olympics with when he went in 2006: "My kids were really young (in 2006). Now, they'll remember this. For me, it's not just the 'what's in it for me?' It's 'what's in it for my family to get to live that?' That's why I'm pushing and hoping I fall on the right side of the equation this time."
