Listen "Lundqvist's Heartbreak: RP Forced Me Out of the NHL!"
Episode Synopsis
BT & Sal are joined by former New York Rangers legend Henrik Lundqvist and Dr. Jonathan Salik to raise urgent awareness about Recurrent Pericarditis (RP), a chronic and often misdiagnosed heart disease. Lundqvist details how RP forced his retirement following open-heart surgery, calling the condition a major "life disrupted."
The King also weighs in on the current Rangers squad, addressing their embarrassing zero-goal start at home and reflecting on the frustration of his own career, where he often carried deficient offensive teams. The hosts conclude by placing Lundqvist on New York's "Mount Rushmore of Heartbreak," alongside greats like Patrick Ewing and Don Mattingly—legends revered for their greatness but lacking a championship ring.
