Henrik Lundqvist is one of the greatest goalies to ever play in the NHL, but on this episode of Stronger, we get to know him beyond the ice and the pressure. Don sits down with the New York Rangers legend for an honest, funny, and deeply personal conversation about identity, reinvention, and resilience. Henrik reflects on his transition from Sweden to New York City, the intensity of playing in Madison Square Garden, and how he trained his body and mind for peak performance over 15 seasons. He also opens up about his unexpected retirement following open-heart surgery, how he learned to slow down after a lifetime of pushing forward, and the mental shift that helped him move on from playing the game professionally. Plus, Henrik shares his love of music and how playing guitar was the ultimate stress relief in his downtime as an athlete. ----------------------------- Sponsored By: Mitopure By Timeline: Get 20% off Mitopure.
