If the NHL season, which was put on pause March 12 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, is over, is it possible Henrik Lundqvist played his last game in a Rangers' uniform?
Yes, it’s definitely possible.
If the 2019-20 season is indeed over, then, after 14 years as the face of the Rangers, Lundqvist will have ended season No. 15 as the team’s No. 3 goaltender. His last game will have been a third-period relief appearance March 7 in a 6-4 loss to the Devils at the Garden, and his last start will have been a 5-3 loss to the Flyers at the Garden on March 1, the day before his 38th birthday.
