Boston area man, Jarome Iginla, on winter weather

Jarome Iginla: Hockey Hall of Famer, and also, Boston area man.
During a Boston news station’s coverage of the snowstorm in the area, it looks like they went to locals in the area for their perspective of the road conditions. Just members of the community they picked off the street... such as Iginla, who appears to have gone hilariously unrecognized by the TV station.

Haha. I’m sure Iggy enjoys the relative anonymity in Boston. Too nice/humble to mention who he is of course.

Sounded like his typical interview, complete with patented ear to ear Smile.

He was interviewed by Channel 25?
Clearly on Joe's side in the Nieuwendyk trade.

I first heard of this story an hour or so before I saw the video- yet pretty much to no-one's surprise- the video is exactly as I imagined it
no point saying never change Iggy as he will indeed never change

It irrationally upsets me that he doesn’t live in Calgary. Would be such a great ambassador for the team and city.

In fairness to him, Boston kicks ass if you have money. Which he does. Lots.
Plus it’s the Flames fault they couldn’t build a championship team around him so he could ride out his career here.

I’ve met Jarome a number of times. He doesn’t strike me as a guy who would want to be an ambassador for a city. He is very down to earth. Boston is a perfect place for him . It’s a beautiful city without the glitz and glamour of a place like New York.

One only assumes the TV station edited out his patented "Thanks for having me" at the end of the actual interview.

If I recall his main reason for staying in Boston is they found a school they really liked that his kids were enrolled in and wanted to keep them there. Pretty sure his family never left Boston as he continued on with other teams.

Love Iggy and so happy he gets to live in a city where he can live in relative anonymity.

Quite a number of elite hockey academies in Massachusetts IIRC, specifically ones for girls.
