Posted this in the OOT... Some comments after the game:
Quote:
Boston fans booed Iginla every time he touched the puck.
"No, I wasn't surprised," he said. "It's a great sports city, and at the time I was very humbled that I had an opportunity to go to both teams, both teams were interested in me. I made the choice to come to [Pittsburgh], I'm thrilled with that. But I have a lot respect for the city here, I hear great things from the guys that play here, I have some friends on that team. I hear great things from the city, the organization.
"I expected that (the booing), and it's not too bad when it's on the road. When it's on the road, you can live with that. At home, when you're getting booed like that, it's hard to take."

Saddens me that he experienced that Calgary.
