08:28 AM ET 11.09 | From a hockey perspective, Henrik Lundqvist hasn't exactly been welcomed back. [Lundqvist], who returned home to Sweden nearly three weeks ago, cannot play for his hometown Frolunda team because of the Swedish Elite League's ban on allowing its clubs to sign locked-out NHL players to contracts with escape clauses. "Nothing has changed. I'm not going to play for Frolunda unless things change," The King wrote in an e-mail to The Post after using his Twitter account to express his frustration with the SEL policy. "Just trying to stay ready in case things change overseas. The longer I have to wait, obviously the more I want to join my brother [Joel] on Frolunda, but right now I'm sitting tight," the 2011-12 Vezina winner continued.

Come on back, Henrik. There will be a CBA soon and the Rangers need you in net to compensate for their lack of scoring again.
