PPG for the first time and scores the first and last goals of the Final enroute to his first Cup!
Super happy to see him win in his first year away from Winnipeg!

Congrats to Nik Ehlers!!!!

 

[Calvin Bale]

Very happy for him. Well deserved, especially after his performance in this series. Glad to see the overwhelming majority of Jets fans giving him props as well.

He brought an element that the Canes were missing. It's fun to see a player who knew he wanted to come here, a team that knew they needed a guy like him, and to see it work out so perfectly.

 

[Unsustainable]

He fit in prefect, and embraced the team, which embraced him too.

This team requires you to want to be here.

I cannot believe I am seeing my boy Ehlers lift the cup and the impact he had on both finals

 

[NikoEhlers]

And thank you to the Jets fans who is able to be happy for him, it can be bitter sweet seeing him lift the cup and play so well after 10 years in Winnipeg He just fit in perfectly in Carolina with Staal especially

He should have won the Conn Smythe

He is a Danish legend and all jets fans love ehlers. He was part of the miracle last year against the blues with 1 second to go. Then he scores a cup winning goal because of a good defensive read. What a player.

Very under the radar guy, been a key guy his whole career and a big piece to get Carolina over the top

Very happy for Fly, Winnipeg fans love him. Great guy and very classy. Loved his comments about his time in Winnipeg and how emotional he got.

Too bad PMO, Bones and Arniel didn’t appreciate him enough.

He is closing in on buddy Burakovsky.

He should have won the Conn Smythe

Agree- he would have been my pick for Conn Smythe too.

Unfortunately it seem like media never got behind him much at all. I think a better performance in series vs Ottawa in 1st rd maybe would have given him more media momentum and narrative coming into finals
