Henrik Lundqvist: replacing Henrik Zetterberg 'Impossible' for Sweden
What does the loss of captain Henrik Zetterberg mean for the Swedish men's Olympic ice hockey team? An awful lot, according to netminder Henrik Lundqvist.
Lundqvist told reporters on Friday following Sweden's 1-0 victory over Switzerland that Zetterberg is irreplaceable for the Swedish Olympic men's team:
In Sweden's first game, Zetterberg was clearly the team's most accomplished and important playmaker. While Patrik Berglund was solid and involved offensively in Zetterberg's stead on Friday, he's still not Zetterberg.
