Rangers' Henrik Lundqvist: Will start for Team Sweden

Lundqvist (illness) will start in goal for Team Sweden in Tuesday's matchup against Team Finland, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.

Analysis:

Having Lundqvist in goal instantly boosts Sweden's chances of advancing to the knockout stage. A near lock for 30 wins, with the occasional injury seemingly the only thing that can slow him down, the veteran has been extremely durable and consistent, qualities that can't be overstated when evaluating goaltending options.
