Henrik Lundqvist and Mats Zuccarello may be teammates during the regular season, but they’ll take any chance to pull a fast one on each other when they’re not dressed in the same sweater.
The two took part in their charity Summer Classic last night, an outdoor game played in Ullevaal Stadium in Oslo, Norway featuring numerous NHL players. Both players served as captain for their respective team, and when finally presented with an oppoturnity to square off one-on-one against each other, Lundqvist conceded by throwing the net off of its pegs.
Okay, so it was all in good fun and the two are actually best friends. Zuccarello even decided to rock Lundqvist on his skates during last night's action. Check out the unreal artwork he had plastered onto his boots for last night’s event:
What are those!!!!
The game featured a long list of mostly European players around the league. Some of them included Victor Hedman, William Karlsson, and Nikolaj Ehlers, to name a few.
Zucc managed to scored a hatty but it was Hank who ultimately came away with the victory. He just didn’t display the best sportsmanship in the process.
