Wow, didn't hear Peter on the radio but I don't blame him. He's very close to the team and I imagine Iggy has been very good to him over the years. Even I had to take a few deep breathes yesterday after hearing the news. Its a tough day, Jarome is not the typical athlete and he didn't have the typical career with Calgary. You don't see his level of class and that type of longevity with one organization much at all these days.
It'll be a tough press conference, I'm kind of glad I'm at work and pretty busy.
