Rep. Nickel Launches Carolina Hurricanes Playoff Challenge
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Representative Wiley Nickel (NC-13) launched a Carolina Hurricanes playoff challenge ahead of the Hurricanes first round playoff series against the New York Islanders.
Representative Nickel, a longtime Hurricanes fan and father of a Junior Canes player, challenged his fellow freshmen class and Problem Solvers Caucus colleague, Representative Anthony D’Esposito (NY-04), to a friendly wager.
“I’m expecting a great series between the Canes and Islanders, but expect the Canes to win in 6 and get a step closer to the Stanley Cup Finals,” said Rep. Nickel. “ I look forward to enjoying some great Long Island Pizza courtesy of Team D’Esposito after the Canes send the Islanders packing.”
In case the Islanders pull off an upset over the Hurricanes, Rep. Nickel has wagered some eastern North Carolina barbecue sauce.

baby killing, anti-Constitutional false representative. Doesn’t he have better things to do? Oh yeah, spending OUR money where HE wants. I’m sure those box seats aint cheap.
You call him a baby killer yet support the party that does nothing to stop the leading cause of death to kids in america…that being guns. Go touch grass and stop watching Newsmax.
A. It’s very common for politicians to make a wager with other politicians over playoffs.
B. You think he’s using tax payers money to attend a hockey game? Care to share evidence instead of conspiracy theories?
His salary is paid from tax dollars. Not a conspiracy theory, but simple common sense.
Wait, you’re upset that he’s spending his salary on something he is interested in? Are you saying that anyone who works for the government has to get approval from Brett to spend their money? Brett, I work for the government, may I buy dinner for my family tonight?
👍 Who knows, maybe Brett works for the government and we can tell him how to spend his salary 🤑
