Canadian friends travel to Raleigh to support Hurricanes' Seth Jarvis in playoffs

A group of childhood friends from Canada made the trip to Raleigh this week to support Carolina Hurricanes forward Seth Jarvis as he continues his Stanley Cup playoff run. Lucas Humble, Lucas Fry, Matt McLeod, Sloan Tremblay, Bryan Hanna and Noah Wagner -- who call themselves the "Good Ol' Canadian Boys" -- traveled south to cheer on their longtime friend and former teammate. "It's unreal to watch, right?

Being able to watch him try and battle his way through the Stanley Cup playoffs. It's something that it's a privilege to watch," McLeod said. The group's bond dates back to middle school, when they first met playing hockey together.

From an early age, they said, it was clear Jarvis had the potential to play at the highest level. "We all played on the same hockey teams and then all of a sudden, you know, since day one, he was going to make it to the next level and he actually did," Wagner said. "He's living his lifelong dream and he's doing good at it," Tremblay added.

The friends documented their journey from Canada on social media, sharing clips from their flight, van ride and stay in Raleigh. Their trip included a stop at Lenovo Center for Game 2, where Jarvis made a key play to tie the game. "It's been unbelievable," said Hanna.
