(You may have heard something about the guy ahead of him, Jonathan Quick). Still, one can't go wrong with using a high draft pick (even a first-rounder) on the Rangers' dominant netminder, especially now that the team has added Rick Nash to a team that has acquired Brad Richards and Marian Gaborik in recent offseasons. While the firepower up front should help Lundqvist take aim at the league lead in wins, it's the Blueshirts' defensemen (and defensive zone mindset) that will keep those ratios in strong shape. Lundqvist has been remarkably durable over his seven-year NHL career as well, averaging 66 starts per season; that puts him in the range of at least 38 starts in this shortened campaign. With reliable understudy Martin Biron on the roster (and another long postseason run in the Rangers' plans), the team may dial it back a bit for Lundqvist, but that won't keep him from another season amongst the elite fantasy netminders.
