Lidstrom honored by home County of Dalarna
“Last year we established a special title in Dalarna, we call it ambassador of honor of Dalarna,” Maria Norrfalk said during a press conference. “And this title has only been given once, and it was to Kris Kristofferson, the well-known country singer. We give this title only once per year, and it should be to a person who lives abroad, be it a Swede or someone who is from another country. This person must have a connection to Dalarna and strong feeling for our county. We expect the ambassador of honor to talk well about our county in other places all over the world. We think that Nicklas Lidstrom is the very best person that we could give this title.”
Lidstrom walked off with a certificate and a big blue Dala horse.
“It’s something I didn’t expect,” he said, “but I’m very happy it happened.”
