Henrik Lundqvist enjoying 'new surroundings' in D.C.
Henrik Lundqvist will be playing for a new team for the first time in his career after 15 years with the New York Rangers. The 38-year-old signed a one-year, $1.5 million deal with the Washington Capitals, and it appears he's enjoying his time in D.C. thus far.
The netminder tweeted "New surroundings" with a photo of himself in the Capitals locker room.
He also posted a video to Instagram, and it appears he and his family certainly are enjoying D.C. thus far.
The past two seasons haven't been kind for Lundqvist, who won the Vezina Trophy as the league's best goaltender during the 2011-12 season. In 82 games played over the last two years, Lundqvist owns a 3.12 goals-against average and a .906 save percentage.
While he wasn't able to find his groove with the Rangers over the last few seasons, he could potentially perform better with the Capitals, who have a far better squad.
