Heart condition sidelines Henrik Lundqvist for season
It was always going to be very weird to see a Rangers team without Henrik Lundqvist and a Capitals team with him this upcoming season, assuming the NHL and players can ever figure out when and how that will happen. Frighteningly, we will not see the latter scenario, as Lundqvist has announced he wil...
Rangers win race against no one to sign the worst player available in NHL free agency
Henrik Lundqvist, bought out last week by the New York Rangers, found a new home as soon as NHL free agency opened up on Friday, joining the Washington Capitals on a one-year deal to try to chase the Stanley Cup that eluded the 38-year-old for his whole career on Broadway....
Henrik Lundqvist has been pushed out of the building
Generally, quoting any of Christopher Nolan’s “Batman” films is reserved for the biggest tools in your life. Especially if it’s uttered by The Joker, because it’s usually the dude who dressed as the Heath Ledger version for Halloween one year and didn’t drop character for a second until like Novembe...
Sports Are For Crying Because Your Friend Got Traded Away
Professional sports are a job, but in many ways very much unlike other jobs. Your teammates are more than co-workers; you work together, but you also socialize together, travel together, practically (and sometimes literally) live together. For half of the season you’re on the road together, sharing ...

When Do The Rangers Start Worrying About Henrik Lundqvist?
Henrik Lundqvist has been one of the best and most consistent goaltenders in the NHL, and on the rare occasions where he’s gone into little slumps while the likes of Steve Valiquette or Marty Biron have gone on tears, it’s been an occasion for fans to performatively throw themselves behind the new g...
The Penguins Have A Random Dude In Goal And The Rangers Might Be Doomed Anyway
Even if he never plays again, there may not be a better feel-good story in these playoffs than Jeff Zatkoff, a third-string goalie thrust into action by injury, who responded with a confident, capable start that, backed by a Patric Hornqvist hat trick, gave the Penguins about as strong a 1-0 series ...

A Tale Of Two Goalies In Game 7
Henrik Lundqvist isn’t supposed to lose Game 7. And to be fair, New York’s 2-0 loss to Tampa Bay last night was in no way Lundqvist’s fault. For two periods New York’s attack was ineffectual, and its defense allowed the Lightning to get off a number of quality shots. Lundqvist saved them all. Even t...
The Lightning Won't Be Stopped
The Lightning appear to own Henrik Lundqvist. The Rangers goalie has now given up six goals in back-to-back games, and of six games this season in which he’s allowed five or more goals, the last four have come against Tampa Bay. This is not to suggest that the usually dependable Lundqvist has some p...
The Rangers Are Built To Just Get By
Again it came down to one game, one goal, and again the Rangers escaped by the skin of their teeth. When Derek Stepan slotted home a traffic-stopped puck that landed right at his feet, the Rangers had won their sixth consecutive Game 7, all in the last four seasons, tying an NHL record...
