[Swansman]

Go teams with Swedish players! (no idea who these are nowadays... Peter Forsberg still around?)

 

[Lyndhurst 14]

Go teams with Swedish players! (no idea who these are nowadays... Peter Forsberg still around?)

Always thought Henrik Lundqvist was a great keeper when he was at New York Rangers for 15 years, he was one tough son of a bitch.

He's now playing for the Washington Capitals.

He also did a lot of charity work

[Lower West Stander]

Possibly the most boring playoff line up in history.

And I’m a massive Rangers fan so don’t want the Bruins or Sidney bloody Crosby to win it either.....
