Return of the King: Lundqvist makes 1st start since Feb. 2 Saturday vs. Bruins
Jerome Miron / USA TODAY Sports
The New York Rangers have their franchise goalie back where he belongs.
Henrik Lundqvist, who had not started for the club in 25 games due to a vascular injury, will be between the pipes when the puck drops Saturday in Boston.
In 39 games, Lundqvist - who will bust out a new mask for the contest - posted a record of 25-11-3 with a 2.25 GAA and .922 save percentage.
Rangers head coach Alain Vigneault offered some simple advice for Lundqvist in advance of his return:
