Frölunda loses Henke

We lost Henrik Lunqvist to the USA this week. It is a bummer since he is clearly one of the main reasons for the success of the Frölunda Indians for the last few years. He goes to the New York Rangers now, and has a chance to play in the big leagues, in the NHL. The Rangers have some good goalies now, but they are older and they are probably ready to shed a couple of them and let some of their youngsters take over. They have four serious prospects in the organization right now and Henke is considered one of the two who could start in the NHL.

The CBC has some pretty good statistical information on Henke here.
