Henrik Lundqvist played his entire 15-season career with the New York Rangers of the National Hockey League. This weekend the Ranger icon will be enshrined in the Hockey Hall of Fame.
The star goaltender is being inducted in his first year of eligibility to the Hockey Hall of Fame. He’s sixth in NHL history in wins (459), ninth in games (887) and 17th in shutouts (64).
Those 459 victories are the most by a European goalie. The first Swedish goaltender to be inducted, Lundqvist won 61 more times in the playoffs before his career ended in 2020 because of a heart condition.
Selected in the seventh round by New York at the 2000 NHL draft, he backstopped the Rangers to the 2014 Stanley Cup final. He won Olympic gold with Sweden in 2006.
