The King on CBA Offensive

Ranger goalie Henrik Lundqvist is paid to stop shots.  This afternoon, via twitter, he took a few of his own.

Lately I've been surprising myself with some weird actions.
I was taking my dog for a walk, left the apt with just the leash..Who does that?


Reasons for my behavior, still adjusting to parenthood..
Or it could be Gary Bettman's comments on shutting down the league.. #Alotonmymind 

The @NHL says they won't play past Sept 15th under current deal. Apparently they don't like the deal they
designed. #CBA #nhlpa2012

Lundqvist also retweeted union-mate, and former teammate Brandon Prust's comment:


Brandon Prust ‏@BrandonPrust8
Disappointed the League is talking about a lockout before we even give our @NHLPA counterproposal. #theplayers

Both the Rangers and the Islanders are SCHEDULED to open the NHL season nine weeks from tonight.
