Henke on the Kakko: Check a little extra

"Henke on Kakko: ”Check a little extra”"

"of BRATISLAVA. Henrik Lundqvist had an eye on most of the Three Cent goal against Italy."

"But during the world CUP, he has also an eye on the other."

"As the 18-year-old sensation Kaapo Kakko."

"– Yes, with it I already knew, I am not surprised that he made five goals, " says Henke."

"of course He has a small eye on both the american Jack Hughes and finn, Kaapo Kakko in the world CUP, when his New York Rangers may choose as number two in this summer's NHL draft."

"They were lucky in draftlotteriet, where they went from sixth place to second, and the finn is widely touted to go as second."

"Two years left on his contract."

"It is not only a big part of the Rangers future hangs on this summer's draft, but also Henrik Lundqvist's chances to win the Stanley Cup before his career is over."

"The Swedish world CUP star has just two years left on his contract."

"– Yes, it will be a very important draft pick for the Rangers in the summer, and we all know that it will be Jack Hughes and Kakko, who goes first and second. After the U18 CHAMPIONSHIPS, I was absolutely sure that Hughes was the clear number one, but now will Kakko suddenly here in the world CUP. So we'll see."

"Even when Henke was in Carlson Hockey Games last Sunday, he sat on the side and kept an extra eye on the finn. A match that Jacob Markström started, before he became pååkt and had to leave the ice."

"– Yes, it was the first time I saw him live and thought now I'll check a little extra. Then he added the fine passes forward to their 1-0 win. But I had heard good things about him before, he's been as good as Patrik Laine and Alexander Barkov at the same age in the Finnish league. "Then you know that it is high class."

"Henrik Lundqvist feel highly involved in the Rangers future, despite the fact that his own career will soon be over."

"– Yes, it is clear that as a veteran do you feel more responsibility than when you were younger and more focused on yourself. Now I think of the whole team and the organization in a different way."

"Therefore he will be one of the first to welcome the finn if he shows up at training camp in the fall."

"– Yes, it is exciting."
