HENRIK LUNDQVIST UNVEILS NEW ADDITIONS TO CROWN COLLECTION BENEFITING THE GARDEN OF DREAMS FOUNDATION
Crown Collection Apparel Available Exclusively at Madison Square Garden
New York, January 20, 2013 – Today New York Rangers goaltender Henrik Lundqvist unveiled new additions to the highly popular Crown Collection, a selection of apparel he designed where a portion of all proceeds benefit the Garden of Dreams Foundation. Lundqvist is the Foundation’s spokesperson, and has raised thousands of dollars and spent countless hours mentoring and inspiring Garden of Dreams children. In 2012, Lundqvist was given the Garden of Dreams Hero Award, honoring him for his commitment to the Foundation, and his active, on-going dedication to children facing obstacles.
New Crown Collection pieces for this season include a signature fitted jacket, hooded sweatshirt, a new fitted cap style, a knit scarf, as well as select novelty items all featuring the exclusive logo of a crown with Lundqvist’s number 30 in the center. These items will be complimented by the classic t-shirt and hat that debuted last season. The Crown Collection is sold exclusively at retail stores at Madison Square Garden. A portion of all proceeds benefit Garden of Dreams.
“After the success of last year’s Crown Collection I couldn’t be more excited for fans to see the new pieces this season,” said Lundqvist. “It was such a great way to connect with fans as well as raise money for The Garden of Dreams Foundation. The amazing work that Garden of Dreams does for underprivileged kids is so important to me, I’m really proud that Crown Collection can contribute to such a great cause.”

John Amirante baby. Cant wait!
Oops, meant to post it here…
And while we are all waiting for more news, here is a little tidbit from LB. For entertainment purposes. And for the enjoyment of some, or at least one of our pretend-to-be-a-rangers-fan trolls:

Don LaGreca on ESPN moments ago – “It will be a very Jekyll and Hide Regular Season. You don’t necessarily have to be the best team. As a fan you cant live and die with every single game.”
Game time yet?
Cool program about HankQvist on MSG right now
It’s too late, Kenny. This season is already tarnished. They can only go 47-1.
sorry, that was in response to somebody who commented on the thread three threads ago. Or four.
never mind.
What was, Carp?
Never mind. How’s the new MSG? Prime rib? $22.50?
Does someone else want to make the obligatory remark about Lundqvist focusing on designing merchandise?
The first of 6 back to backs for the Rangers tonight. The fewest of any other NHL team i believe.
Neil Smith on the NHLN pregame show..
Like Hagelin doing a Q&A with the post, LW?
We killed in back to back games last year
Q. Are you focusing on the game?
A. Yes.
Hope the crowd makes up for that pathetic “We Dont Want You” chant last year.
Torts on Asham – “Anxious to see Asham in the lineup and even elsewhere.”
Avery is purposely distracting Lundqvist with fashion to get back at Torts.
According to Crosby, the Rangers are in the conversation …..Are you as flattered as I am?
