2016 World Cup Of Hockey: Henrik Lundqvist Named To Team Sweden
Henrik Lundqvist (shockingly) has been added to Team Sweden's World Cup Roster.
The full roster is below:
#TeamSweden 16-man #WorldCupofHockey roster: Lundqvist, Markstrom, Karlsson, Kronwall, Hedman, Stralman, Hjalmarsson, Ekman-Larsson (1/2)

The other rosters are expected to be announced later, where more Rangers might see some inclusion. This, however, was the lock of all locks. King Henrik (who won gold with Sweden in the 2006 Winter Olympics) will once again be manning the pipes for Team Sweden.
Hopefully he has a slow glove hand in this tournament because his Stanley Cup ring is weighing him down so much.
The other team's official announcement schedule is below, we might see some more Rangers named to this tournament yet.
Team Europe: 4:30 p.m.
Team North America: 5:15 p.m.
Team Canada: 6:05 p.m.
Team USA: 6:45 p.m. (this will be broadcasted on ESPN)
