The Chicago Blackhawks skate Saturday against the Philadelphia Flyers in the Stanley Cup Finals. There would probably be a lot of people from Roseau watching in any given year --because Roseau is a big hockey town. But there's bound to be even more excitement there than usual thanks to Dustin Byfuglien. The 25-year-old Blackhawk player grew up in Roseau, and he's been key to Chicago's success this year.

MPR's Cathy Wurzer spoke with Dustin's mother Cheryl Byfuglien.
