Any superstitions?

|
|
|
|
Mike Iggulden: I always wanted to go to college and get my education in case hockey did not work out for me. i would most likley be in the buisness field if i were not in hockey.
|
|
| Bob (Worcester): Mike,
Welcome back to Worcester... Two things.... Congrats on your great start to the season.
What do you think has been the strongest strenght on the team this year and what do you think needs to be improved on?
|
|
|
|
Mike Iggulden: The Strongest thing has been playing toghether as a team. when we are playing well every one is doing thier jobs and playing thier roles. Goaltending has also been a hudge strength. We need to improve on are penalty kill and in our play in the defensive zone.
|
|
| Carl Miller (Worcester): Mike you have been on fire as of late scoring goals and points. Do you think you will ever get called up or do you think SJ will continue to go with their early draft picks since you are a free agent signing? Hope to see you in San Jose (sometime).
|
|
|
|
Mike Iggulden: I really hope that i get a chance to play up with San Jose really soon. I think that I deserve an oppurtunity and will continue to work as hard as I can.
