Lundqvist will be between the pipes in Wednesday's Game 1 against the Penguins.

Analysis:

Lundqvist didn't end the regular season on a high note, allowing three goals on just 16 shots en route to a 4-1 loss to the Islanders on Thursday. The 34-year-old netminder will look to turn in a better performance Wednesday in Game 1 of the Rangers' first-round playoff series with a red-hot Pittsburgh team that finished the regular season with wins in eight of nine games.
