KAMLOOPS — Jarome Iginla is a Kamloops Blazers’ icon, a two-time Memorial Cup champion and part-owner of the team. 

Now his son, 19-year-old Tij, is having success against the Blazers in the playoffs. 

The Kelowna Rockets’ forward has nine points in three games, and his team leads Kamloops 3-0 in their first-round WHL playoff series.
