A local TV station in Boston has drawn some attention after casually interviewing Hall of Famer Jarome Iginla during its coverage of a snowstorm this weekend.
The segment caught the eye of a Twitter user when Iginla suddenly appeared on screen:
Is it just me, or was this Jarome Iginla being interviewed at a rest area during storm coverage and Ch. 25 might not have realized it? @NicoleOliverio pic.twitter.com/F43BCYeqg2

Iginla has surely seen his fair share of snow after growing up in Edmonton and spending the majority of his NHL career with the Calgary Flames.
"I like the snow, I like the winter, but not necessarily this," Iginla said, according to Boston 25 News' Litsa Pappas. "May be a little too much."
The two-time Olympic gold medalist also shared his thoughts on driving in such conditions.
"Pretty tough, we're from Canada, so it's not too crazy," he said. "I mean, we got some winter tires. Used to this growing up so, it's not great, I'll tell you, you get some tough stretches. But if you don't go too fast, it's doable."
Iginla played one season with the Boston Bruins and decided to call the city home after he retired in 2018.
