Winnipeg Sun:  Magic moment for rookie Nikolaj Ehlers.  The other night we joked that Nic Petan’s first NHL goal would, years down the road, morph into a slap shot top corner instead of a puck that re-directed off his skate.  Well Nikolaj Ehlers won’t need to create such a tale as he scored a beauty last night on Henrik Lundqvist.  If you’d like to see the goal and hear from Ehlers post-game chatting about his first NHL goal click here.
