Henrik Lundqvist hasn’t played since Feb. 2 after taking a puck to the throat at the end of January, but it sounds like he could make his return in a matter of weeks.

Lundqvist suffered a vascular injury and, he says, that playing would’ve put him at risk of having a stroke.

NHL Insider Bob McKenzie said Wednesday on NBCSN that Lundqvist has been skating on his own, taking shots and is getting close to a return, and could be back in 10 to 14 days.
