We never knew

Remember when Lightning star Vinny Lecavalier fought Flames star Jarome Iginla in the 2004 Stanley Cup final?

Well, Sun Sports - covering Saturday's meeting, the first since that final - did a nice job retelling the story and added a nugget we never knew. Lecavalier and Iginla were roommates and became fast friends just a couple of months later when they played for Team Canada in the World Cup of Hockey.Sports_sp_2cma_1442310

(2004 Times photo by Dirk Shadd: The Lightning's Vinny Lecavalier, right, and the Flames' Jarome Iginla were trading pleasantries mere months after trading punches during the Stanley Cup final. Click photo to enlarge.)
