Jarome Iginla Physical Quotations

We want to be a hard, physical team to play against and fighting does happen in that. Our fight, whoever it is on our team, it pumps us up.

It was a pretty physical game and they probably had the edge there. In a one-goal game, they had the edge. They got the big goal late. It doesn't feel good on our part, that's for sure.

I'm very, very excited. Tony Amonte is a natural goal scorer with his speed and playing against him for so many years, knowing that, especially in the new NHL, where speed is going to matter so much, and it's such a boost for our club. And Darren McCarty, three Stanley Cups, and he's so hard to play against. You play against him and he can skate, he's physical and he can score goals. And these guys I've heard nothing but good things from other players. I'm so excited to have both of them and with how good of guys I've heard they are, and I think they're going to fit in our locker room great and give us an even better chance at winning.

The company he's in -- I just saw something on TV the other day -- it's pretty impressive. It's not just his goals. His physical play, his composure ... it's his whole game. He's been unbelievable here.
