The UND product out of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada is going to the Western Conference Finals.  That’s right North Dakota.  One of your Fighting Sioux is going to the finals, after putting away the Canucks in a wild and raucous United Center, 7-5.  Could it be a match-up between two of the original six teams?  Only time will tell.  If the Red Wings put away the Anaheim Ducks tonight, Jonathan Toews will play the defending Stanley Cup Champions for the right to represent the West in the finals.  I am extremely proud of former Fighting Sioux player Jonathan Toews.  This is what sports is all about.

Seeing the rise of your home-state hero.  Toews could be on the cusp of playing for something more than just the Western Conference Championship.  The former Fighting Sioux player could lift Lord Stanley over his head.  How cool would that be?  JeremiahBoyce.com is certainly hoping that the twenty year old will live every hockey player’s dream.
