20 VUENJ.COM I hope everyone had a lovely holiday season as we look forward to creating new memories and moments in 2024. As the frosty breath of winter embraces us, we're thrilled to present our Winter issue - a tapestry of opulence, culture, and of course, a touch of icy enchantment. First and foremost, our cover is graced by none other than the king himself – Henrik Lundqvist. In the midst of winter, when the world seems to slow down, Henrik's story on and off the rink brings a burst of energy and warmth to our pages. We recently had the chance to sit down with Henrik at the Roxy Hotel in New York City, and what follows is one of our most fascinating interviews to date. Growing up as a New York Rangers fan, this issue has a very personal connection. I can vividly recall what I was doing on June 17th nearly 30 years ago. I couldn't tell you what I had for dinner this time last week, but that evening (while the rest of the country was focused on the OJ Simpson car chase), I was glued to the TV watching the New York Rangers parade from earlier that day. is remains one of my fondest childhood memories, and marked the start of my fandom. Fast forward to today when having Henrik on our cover is not just an editorial decision; it's a pinch-me moment for that wide-eyed Rangers fanatic in me. Henrik Lundqvist's tenure with the New York Rangers is nothing short of legendary. His prowess between the pipes, his unparalleled agility, and his unyielding dedication to the sport have etched him into the annals of hockey history. Lundqvist's achievements, including his Vezina Trophy and his role in leading the Rangers to the Stanley Cup Finals in 2014, are testaments to his skill and resilience. You'll also discover the curated elegance that defines winter luxury as you flip through these pages. From fashion that embraces the chill with style to exquisite winter getaways that redefine the meaning of escape, VUE brings you the crème de la crème of winter experiences.
