Carolina Hurricanes Tickets
The Carolina Hurricanes are a professional NHL hockey franchise, based out of Raleigh, North Carolina. The team was first founded in 1972 as the New England and then Hartford Whalers, but moved to North Carolina in 1997 to become the Hurricanes. They currently compete in the Southeast Division of the NHL's Eastern Conference and call Raleigh's RBC Center their home.
The Carolina Hurricanes are one of the NHL's newest teams, but have already built a reputation for themselves as one of the league's best. In their short history as a franchise in North Carolina, they have already won three division championships, two conference titles and even managed to become the Stanley Cup Champions for the 2005-2006 season.

The Canes made national waves for the first time in the 2002 playoffs. They survived a late charge from the Washington Capitals to win the division, but expectations were low entering the first round against the defending Eastern Conference Champion New Jersey Devils. Two games were won by the Canes in overtime as they put away the Devils in six games. The second round matchup was against the Montreal Canadiens. In the third period of game 4 in Montreal, the Hurricanes were down 2-1 in games and 3-0 in score, before the Hurricanes rebounded to win 4-3 on Niclas Wallin's overtime winner. The game became known to Hurricanes fans as the 'Miracle at Molson'; Carolina easily won the next two games over the dejected Habs to win the series.
The conference final was against the heavily-favored Toronto Maple Leafs. In game 6 in Toronto, the Leafs' Mats Sundin tied the game with 22 seconds remaining to send it to overtime, but Carolina's Martin Gelinas scored in overtime to send them to their first Stanley Cup final, against the Detroit Red Wings, thought to be the prohibitive favorite all year. Despite the
4-1 finals loss, it was by far the most successful season in franchise history.
On March 14, 2006, the Hurricanes broke a franchise record in wins, home wins, and points - marks that were set during the 1986-87 NHL season as the Hartford Whalers. On March 31, 2006, the Hurricanes won their third Southeast Division championship by defeating the Florida Panthers 3-2.
In 2006, the Carolina Hurricanes took home the Stanley Cup for the first time in franchise history defeating the Edmonton Oilers 3-1 in game 7 of the playoffs.
