Henrik Lundqvist Makes All-Star History in Loss
ShareThis
Historical Hank
Henrik Lundqvist was unaware that he had entered the record books as the first all-star goalie to face (and stop) a penalty shot. "Wow, so I guess I'm part of history," Lundqvist said after signing the game jersey of tonight's teammate Alex Ovechkin ... who brought on the penalty shot by throwing his stick to try and waylay the breakaway of Matt Duchene.
Lundqvist hadn't seen much of the Avs' sophomore center, so he didn't have much to draw on before stopping the attempt by sliding his left leg out to block the bottom left corner of the goal mouth.
"I didn't have anything on him. I just try to do the same thing every time [on penalty shots]," Lundqvist said. "I just try to be patient and make him make the first move."

Henrik at All-Star Fantasy Draft Event
ShareThis
Henrik was chosen by Team Staal in the 6th round of the All-Star fantasy draft event. I have to admit, I was quite surprised that Henrik's Team Sweden teammate Nik Lidstrom did not pick him.
Random stuff:
- Henrik revealed that he would be saving his best suit for game day.
- Jeremy Roenick said Henrik "is too good looking to be a hockey player."
