Henrik Lundqvist, star goaltender for the New York Rangers, invited a few celebrities to each design a mask paint job.  Then Henrik will wear that mask in an NHL game before being auctioned off for charity. John McEnroe is the guest celebrity this week.

” An all-star lineup will join New York Rangers star goaltender Henrik Lundqvist for a five-episode season of the new MSG Networks series “The Mask with Henrik Lundqvist.” The half-hour episodes feature Lundqvist in one-on-one interviews with his celebrity friends as they design one-of-a-kind goalie masks that Lundqvist will wear in upcoming games this season. Each mask is representative of the guest and their favorite things.

Discussing everything from sports and pop culture to cooking and family, Lundqvist livens up the conversation as he goes into the kitchen with Mario Batali, gets on the ice with Michael J. Fox, steps into the DJ booth with Tiësto, goes car racing with Jeff Gordon, and challenges John McEnroe to a friendly game of tennis. After each mask is worn in a game, they will be auctioned off for charity with all proceeds benefiting The Henrik Lundqvist Foundation and The Garden of Dreams Foundation. “The Mask with Henrik Lundqvist” is produced by Stick Figure Productions and will premiere on Monday, February 16 after the Rangers/Islanders game. ” Quoted from: ranger.nhl.com

“I’ve been working on this project for over a year and I’m really excited to be able to share it with Rangers fans,” said Lundqvist. “I thought it would be a lot of fun to sit down with friends to design original masks that I will then wear in games and auction off to raise money for disadvantaged children.”
