Seth Jarvis said his bus agreed to go tarps off for the parade.
Said it was unfortunate he was next to K'Andre Miller because: "He looks like a Greek God and I look like I'm homeless."
On this day in 1989, the Whalers took Bobby Holik 10th overall. Holik couldn't be there because he was still waiting to defect, so his sister, Andrea, an accomplished tennis player, stood in for him #Hockey365
Rod Brind'Amour on winning the Stanley Cup as a coach compared to as a player:
"I've been asked that a lot here now. It's still awesome. It's just as awesome. But as a player, it was a little different because I'd worked and dreamt about winning the Cup my whole life. And so that was like a piano came off my back. This time around, I wanted it for the group. I wanted them to feel what it's like, and I wanted it so bad for them. So to watch them finally get it, and then when I'm grabbing it, just to see the look on their faces, it's priceless. Because you know how happy they were for me, and it was the other way around for me, you know? And I'll never forget that." #CarolinaCulture #SoundTheSiren #StanleyCup
Here’s the video of the exchange between @FriedgeHNIC and John Tortorella about the end of Game 4 of the NBA Finals last night.
As a fan of the NHL and NBA, this was incredible 🤣
Amazing question by @FriedgeHNIC.

Tom Brady shares what he tells every college athlete he meets and it's not what they expect.
"I hope this experience is hard for you. I hope it's not easy."
"I hope today in this game you're losing in the 4th quarter and you look at each other in the eye and try to figure out solutions to how you're gonna win the game."
"That's how you're gonna find out what you're made of."
You find out who you are when you are challenged. Expect adversity. Expect tough moments.
"Life is hard. The challenges of life are hard."
"This program is hard. It's built on toughness. It's built on resilience. And that's what I wanna see from this team."
You can't wish for easy or hope for easy.
Adversity is a gift if you let it be.

Banff’s most famous grizzly bear has done what he wants, as usual. Parks Canada fitted Bear 122, known as The Boss, with a GPS tracking collar on May 13 as part of ongoing grizzly bear monitoring across Banff National Park.
Within days, the nearly 30-year-old, 750-pound patriarch of the Bow Valley managed to rip it off entirely on his own.
Parks Canada has not confirmed whether it will attempt to re-collar The Boss.
#Canes aren’t skating today but Rod Brind’Amour is. Happened to catch a few moments of him coaching his son Brooks junior canes team at Lenovo. Rod was coaching them harder than his own team!
And this is exactly what I love about hockey even after a loss, Demidov is just standing there laughing with Nikishin, Kochetkov, and Svechnikov. On the ice, you're rivals. Off the ice, it's all respect and friendship
Leaving for work this morning, I looked over and saw what was left behind in the cul-de-sac - a hockey net, scattered sticks, and the remnants of what had to be a 15-20 kid street hockey game last night.
And it hit me… I live at Topsail. A beach community in North Carolina. Yet these kids are choosing to play hockey in the street instead of the “traditional” Southern sports you’d expect around here.
That’s what the Carolina Hurricanes @Canes have done for this state. They didn’t just build a fanbase, they grew the game. It’s honestly amazing seeing hockey take root in places as random as a beach town cul-de-sac. 🏒🌴 Happy Gameday!!!
