A helping hand for the Hurricane Game 2 by Sebastian Aho and Jesperi Kotkaniemi: An early leave and parking discounts As the energy builds for Game 2 of the 2025 Stanley Cup Playoffs, the Carolina Hurricanes will be preparing to go all out for their fans. Understanding the logistical problem of a 6 p.m. weekday start, the team has instituted a parking incentive for fans and is reaching out to employers to promote early work exits. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Her Outfit Caught Everyone's Eye The Stadium True Edition Undo President of the team, Doug Warf, is actively calling on Raleigh-area businesses to give employees with tickets an early leave. Warf pointed to Lenovo North America President Ryan McCurdy for letting his employees leave early as a precedent. Warf even jokingly suggested he could send an email to the bosses on behalf of all the fans, reiterating the organization's commitment to its community. But wait, there's more. Anyone arriving at Lenovo Center between 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. earns a staggering 50% discount on parking. The ordinary price of $45 for parking (even $32 with prior payment via ParkWhiz) in that time slot is customarily discounted by half.
