Henrik Lundquist sought the Sculpture of Freedom. "When I came to the personal 1st training camp [in 2005], I wanted the Statue of Liberty to be on the crown of my mask," said the Rangers goalkeeper. "At home [in Sweden], playing for the Frolund [Indians], I had on the crown was their signal Indian headdress, in consequence, I wanted to save this look. "But after that, in the first week I was here, CASS told me that the Sculpture of Freedom is considered a trademark of [Mike] Richter, and I will need to change. And he says ‘ ' by the way, number 35 is also gone.’ ” It was a hyperlink on Acacia Marquez, Manager, equipment, lovingly popular as the “Cas" that same young man who was Thursday, usually inspired by Richter's Sculpture of Liberty, the mask of Lundqvist wore in practice and will wear Friday at the garden match in front of the hurricanes and subsequently the 25th anniversary ceremonies in honor of the Stanley Cup in 1994, the Rangers won. “It's a similar manner. I often see him here, he's somewhere here exhibited,” said Lundqvist, which implements the mask on the charity subsequently its intended application. “When I heard about these ceremonies, I asked my own designer, Dave [art], to invent something that would actually honor Mike and this team and would look like this. And The Sculpture Of Freedom. "It's not just Mike who's celebrating, it's the team. I like it.”
The middle of the mask is essentially Richter's design, with the image of the Cup-winning goalkeeper and the year “1994” painted on the shell. The other side is the current Lundqvist design. On top is a sculpture, and at the bottom-the logo of the crown of Lundquist. It's a tribute to the champion. "When I came here in the 1st one later such as I was called and I went to the game, Mike did not play, as a result, I was able to meet him in the living room and talk to him," said Lundquist. “Once you see it, in fact it's pretty awesome and sober person. I elementary stood there with giant eyes, trying to grasp it all. It's a wonderful memory.” Lundquist was a 12-year-old living in Sweden when Richter and the Rangers won the Cup. He said that he actually remembers how they won, and recalls the main factors of the parade. He beheld Richter signed bullet from Pavel Bure in the Irga 4 tips and understand actually what it was a duplicate conservation No. 35, opposite the Bure on a breakaway in 1994, the Match of All the Starry sky in the garden 4 with small month back. ” The same, " said Lundquist in amazement. “Incredible.” Lundquist in his own 14th season as a Ranger. He didn't need almost as much time in order to interpret the meaning of 1994. "If you have been here for a year or two, you understand how important this year is for the organization," he said. “It's great to see the main factors, and it was great to get to know these children for many years and what any other to understand who they were in the team. “Were there 4 or 5 stars in their team? They were a great team, no doubt. I look forward to meeting them in the garden.” “At the time, I coached at Northeastern and was an admirer of Bruins," he said. “But for me it was somewhat of my own because of Litchie [Brian Litch] and Mike Richter — the young men I played with and knew — as a result, I was absolutely sick of them. “But I was ill for the Rangers, due to the fact that it was great for hockey. When Rangers are good, it's great for hockey.” It's an oversight that will leak well in the Commonwealth. Quinn stated, in fact, that he had not made a decision whether Neil Pionk, a scratch for Wednesday's 4-3 win in the shootout series over the Bruins, would be reintegrated into the lineup. | |
