New York, NY -- The New York Rangers are proud to announce that the third jersey of the 2010 hockey season will be designed by Henrik Lundqvist with Tiger of Sweden producing the jersey uniform.
"I am very excited. I have always wanted a much more stylish uniform and together with my favorite brand, Tiger of Sweden, the Rangers will be the best dressed players on the ice." says Henrik Lundqvist starting goalie for the New York Rangers. Henrik Lundqvist is well known for his fashion sense and has been voted Best Dressed Male in Sweden and has made People's list of 100 Beautiful People.

Who knew that Brendan Shanahan, who now works for the NHL, is a Lost geek. He has taken 6 years to come up with a pretty good theory on how the TV series Lost will end. He has laid out his thesis on Twitter:

Laurie at Beyond the Blueshirts has a great April Fools Day prank going:
Could Zherdev Reprise his Role on Broadway?
No one fell for this did they?
Read the comments, and the The New York Rangers Blog:
Rangers Interested in Zherdev Again?
And, the other team would be so mesmerized by how goooood NYR looks that they wouldn't even want to hit them.
