Carolina Hurricanes History
The Carolina Hurricanes were established in Raleigh in 1997 after relocating from Hartford, Connecticut, where the National Hockey League franchise was originally founded in 1979. Since their arrival in North Carolina, the Hurricanes have made the playoffs 11 times, captured six division championships, two Eastern Conference titles and the 2006 Stanley Cup Championship.
The team also hosted the 2004 NHL Draft and the 2011 NHL All-Star Game at PNC Arena, where they play their home games. When the Hurricanes made the playoffs in 2001, against the defending Stanley Cup Champions New Jersey Devils, they lost the series but came back from a 3-0 deficit to force a sixth game — marking what many believed to be the start of real hockey in the Research Triangle.
The 2005-2006 season marked the best in the Hurricanes' history, as the team finished with 112 points, beating the previous franchise-best record of 94 points. They ended up beating the Edmonton Oilers in the Stanley Cup Final, marking the first time in NHL history that two former World Hockey Association teams faced off in the Final.

The arena has hosted several NHL Stanley Cup Playoff and Final games, including on June 19, 2006, when the Hurricanes had the home advantage and won the Stanley Cup Final in game seven, deviating the Edmonton Oilers 3-1, bringing the Hurricanes their first Stanley Cup and the first major professional sports championship for North Carolina.
In 2019, the arena hosted the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the first time in 10 years and set a single-game record with 19,495 fans in attendance. That record was further extended on May 14, 2022, when the Hurricanes defeated the Boston Bruins 3-2 before 19,513 fans. PNC Arena welcomes more than 1.5 million guests every year.

Awesome! Come from behind OT victory with cool celly at the end :-) What more could you ask for?!
came to see the Oilers Hurricanes game; while vacationing in NMB.
What a great place to watch a game! Everything was awesome! We were down from Toronto, visiting son at school and got tickets. Amazing value Amazing crowd energy Can't wait to go back!
Great game, great venue. Impressed with Ticketmaster giving me reminders and choice of ticket options.
Had a great time venue location parking was excellent
Wow! They advertised NHL hockey but two Junior B teams showed up instead. There are very few, if any, NHL caliber players on either team. Worst part - they still charged NHL prices. Yuck!
Helpful & courteous staff. We thought the arena was clean, & had good options for eating at this kind of venue. We will visit & catch a game when we return for a visit!
Enjoyed pre- game dinnet @ Arena Restaurant Competitive game ends with shootout! post- game on ice was good!
our 2nd. trip to carolina to see the leafs play; awesome seats & the fans treat us with such kindess & class! the arena is super & we had such a great time even though they lost, again! never a disappointment with ticketmaster! my husband was in line with a family who had tickets that LOOKED like ours, but werent, they couldnt be processed & were sent on to customer service!
Great venue for a hockey game. Short drive to the airport and many hotels and restaurants I have been twice this year to see Hurricanes games and will go again anytime I am in North Carolina. I drove from Charlotte to attend the game and it was worth the 2 hour drive.
