Former Winnipeg Jets winger Nikolaj Ehlers wins Stanley Cup

The Dynamic Dane has his first Cup in his first season with Carolina.

What a first season as a free-agent signing with the Hurricanes for Nikolaj Ehlers, who helped Carolina capture its second ever Stanley Cup championship in franchise history as they defeated Golden Knights in Game 6.

The 30-year-old Dane recorded eight goals and 10 assists for 17 points in 18 playoff games in the first year of a six-year contract he signed last July including the empty net dagger tonight in Game 6.

Carolina defeated Vegas in six games to win the Stanley Cup Final 4-2. It comes 20 years after their first championship won back in 2006.

And Ehlers got emotional after winning the Cup when asked about the impact of Winnipeg on his career.
