WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING:

"Lundqvist was a standout for Sweden at the WJC two seasons ago and won a starting role with Vastra Frolunda, his club team in Sweden. He posted solid numbers last year with a 2.71 goals-against average and a .899 save percentage. He is an extremely athletic and competitive goaltender. The future of the Rangers goaltending appears to be in Dan Blackburn's hands, so Lundqvist will likely be given lots of time to develop in Sweden." (The Sports Forecaster 2002-03, p. 99)

"Playing solidly in goal in Swedish League, should move to Hartford (AHL) next year." (Larry Brooks, The Hockey News Future Watch 2003, p. 30)

"An MVP-caliber goalkeeper in the Swedish Elitserien, Lundqvist will debut in North America in 2005-06 and should earn a roster spot with the Rangers. Poise is Lundqvist's trademark, as he rarely looks rattled in the cage. Kevin Weekes and Al Montoya will challenge him, but Lundqvist could be a special talent." (The Sports Forecaster 2005-06, p. 102)
