Gee, Marty, it's nice to see you, too

When it comes to Tampa Bay's Marty St. Louis, you never know what you're going to get.

Some days, he's one of the most personable players I've met. Other days, though, he can be a little testy. Take this past Tuesday, for instance.

Following an informal workout of mostly Lightning players, St. Louis was among those who stopped to sign. Though others were pleasant, he was in full midseason form:

"I'm not going to sign all those for you," he grumbled, as I approached with three pucks. "I sign for you all season long."

True, Marty, you do sign. It's definitely appreciated, too. But it's hardly all season long.
