To cheer on their friend and Canes player Seth Jarvis, the Good Ol’ Canadian Boys are set to make their way down the streets of Raleigh. Broadcasters Shane Willis, Hanna Yates, Mike Maniscalco and Tripp Tracy are scheduled to go next.

Right before players and coaching staff, Carolina Hurricanes hockey operations and assistant general managers will have their turn. Then, parade attendees will see Canes owner Tom Dundon, general manager Eric Tulsky and the locker room staff.

Brind’Amour will then make his appearance. He’s followed by various players in different groups, with the police and fire departments bringing up the rear.
