Lundqvist reminds Rangers fans he’s going nowhere

Anthony Scultore Updated: Jan 25, 2019

Yesterday at the All Star Game media day, Henrik Lundqvist put what I hope is the final nail in the speculation coffin.

Henrik Lundqvist today at All-Star Game Media Day: "I take a lot of pride in being a New York Ranger and being a part of that organization. It means a lot to me to have this opportunity to play my entire career for one organization."

This should seem unnecessary considering he told the Rangers last year that he wanted to stay through the rebuild. Of course, many fans and even some hockey personalities and insiders speculated he might change his mind.

Well, now we know that playing on a struggling team hasn’t changed his heart or his mind. When it’s over, Henrik Lundqvist will end his career in the jersey where it all started. Rejoice Rangers fans.

A message from @HLundqvist30 to kick off #NHLAllStar weekend!

Stay tuned for more with Henrik for #NYR ‘Unlocked’ presented by @Chase. pic.twitter.com/SLx0dmv8r4
