It was in early January that Lundqvist operated on his heart after a heart defect was discovered after the transfer to the NHL team Washington Capitals.
A little more than a month after the operation, "Henke" gives an update.
"Today is a good day.
The medical check-up confirmed what I have felt in recent weeks, everything looked good ", he writes on his Instagram.
He writes that the message from the doctor gave so much energy that he set out to run and adds, a bit jokingly, that he is not normally a runner.
