We’ll continue the discussion about the Carolina Hurricanes winning the Stanley Cup, along with ECU Athletics and the World Cup on today’s “Pirate Radio Live.”

Hurricanes public address announcer Wade Minter will join the show and give us his thoughts on the team winning it all. We’ll also hear from WNCT’s Ken Watlington about that and the rest of the day’s news.

Joining him will be the Daily Reflector’s Donnell Coley, along with Greenville native Britton Fisher, who now plays for Minnesota United, to get his thoughts on the World Cup and Team USA’s performance. We’ll also recap Tuesday’s interview with ECU Athletic Director Jon Gilbert.
