Iginla, Hossa lead Hall of Fame class

Jarome Iginla and Marian Hossa will both be inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in their first year of eligibility, it was announced on Wednesday.

The Hall of Fame class of players is rounded out by former Oilers and Rangers defenseman Kevin Lowe, former Blackhawks and Sharks defenseman Doug Wilson, and Team Canada goaltender Kim St-Pierre, now the first female goaltender in the Hall of Fame.

Lowe, 61, was a key member of the Oilers' dynasty of the 1980s, winning the Stanley Cup five times. He won a sixth cup with the Rangers in 1994.
