A championship night in Carolina

At 24, Seth Jarvis lifted the Stanley Cup alongside his Carolina Hurricanes teammates, sealing a six‑game victory over the Vegas Golden Knights that crowned the franchise’s first championship in its history.

From Manitoba rinks to the NHL spotlight

Born and raised in Winnipeg, Jarvis honed his craft on the city’s outdoor rinks before starring for the Winnipeg Monarchs and later the RINK Hockey Academy, a path that led to his selection 13th overall by Carolina in the 2020 NHL Draft.

His professional journey took him through the WHL’s Portland Winterhawks, where his relentless motor and knack for clutch performances drew the attention of NHL scouts, eventually earning him a permanent spot in the Hurricanes’ lineup.

The 2026 Stanley Cup Final featured a dramatic overtime winner from Jarvis in Game 2, a goal that swung momentum and finished the series with four goals and 11 points across the postseason.

Beyond the ice, the triumph resonates deeply within Manitoba’s hockey community, celebrating a local product who has now joined the list of Winnipeg‑born champions and inspiring the next generation of players.
