Colorado Avalanche great Jarome Iginla announces retirement after 21 seasons

One player, 1554 games, 625 goals, 675 assists, 1300 points, 1040 penalty minutes, two Olympic Gold Medals, two Rocket Richards, and an Art Ross across a 21-year career with the Colorado Avalanche, Los Angeles Kings, Boston Bruins, Pittsburgh Penguins, and another team I forgot the name of.

That is what all-time Avalanche Great Jarome Iginla is putting the lid on as he has announced that he will retire from hockey officially during a press conference on July 30th in Calgary. Not sure why they picked Calgary, Iggy was born in Edmonton!
