Henrik & Joel Lundqvist Save Lives!

According to Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet, Henrik and Joel are heroes in a kayak tragedy. I love how dramatic they made the title, but in this case it sounds like it's actually relevant.

Henrik, Joel, dad, uncle and a friend were boating to lunch when they came across the kayakers. One kayak was upside down with the guy still strapped in. They got both on board, still alive, and boated them back to safety. I didn't think Henrik's approval rating could get any higher, but it just did!
