Teamwork and hard work make any production possible. It also helps an NHL club win the Stanley Cup. Everything aligned in Raleigh last year as the Carolina Hurricanes broke through for their first title in 20 years. In the game presentation department, two individuals — Vice President of Entertainment & Presentation Jason Danby in his first season after working for other NHL teams like the Dallas Stars and New York Rangers as well as Director of Event Presentation Christine Williams in her 11th season after many internships and freelance roles — produced in-arena shows for home games and watch parties for away games at Lenovo Center all postseason long.
On the latest episode of SVG GameDay, Williams and Danby highlight the effort that was put in during their run to the trophy, how they work together to entertain fans on a nightly basis, their respective paths that led them to North Carolina, their collegiate years at Elon University and Texas A&M University, and much more.
