Lundqvist To Miss Season With Heart Condition

UNDATED (AP) – Washington Capitals goaltender Henrik Lundqvist has announced that he will sit out the upcoming season due to a heart condition.  The man known as “King Henrik” said he has been undergoing various tests on his heart “for several weeks.”  The 38-year-old Lundqvist joined the Capitals about two months ago after 15 years with the Rangers. He accepted a one-year, $1.5 million package from Washington following his buyout by New York.  Lundqvist has put up Hall of Fame numbers since entering the league in 2005, going 459-310-96 with 64 shutouts, a 2.43 goals-against average and a .918 save percentage.
