The Carolina Hurricanes brought their Stanley Cup celebration to downtown Raleigh. Thousands of fans arrived hours early to line sidewalks for the team’s victory parade or packed in near the rally stage where the Hurricanes were set to cap off the festivities. The team was greeted by fans screaming, chanting, waving flags and wearing Carolina jerseys. Carolina beat the Vegas Golden Knights last weekend to win the Cup for the second time, the other coming in 2006. Coach Rod Brind'Amour was captain of that previous championship winner. He said he was “kinda speechless” from the fan response Saturday.
