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 Lenovo Center, 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.

Had three people that couldn't fit in the chairs. When we went to customer service to see if we can sit somewhere else and pay for those tickets we were told just try. Also that they were sold out. Very disappointed because this was my husband and sons first time at a NHL game.
We had seats in the upper deck, section 316. The seats were so small. I’m a 150 lb woman with an athletic build and my legs rubbed on the arm rests and cup holders each time I sat down. My husband is a large man, 350 lbs 6’6”, think former college offensive lineman size, and he just fit into the seats without there being an issue. He had bruises on his legs after the game from where the arm rests dug into his skin. There are a lot of people his size or larger who I know had just as uncomfortable experience as he did. Maybe instead of herding people in like cattle to maximize profits, a little thought could have been put in to consider human comfort. And before we get into fat shaming, my husband works out 5-6 days a week and is as strong as an ox - but there is no excuse. Everyone should be able to be accommodated at hockey game without having to be in pain the whole time. Otherwise the game was great, every staff member was cordial, and the fan atmosphere made it a lot of fun even if the lightning got blow out horrifically.
Game was fast paced and the crowd really got into the game. It was kid’s day so the players brought their kids onto the ice after the game which was really nice.
I always love watching the Carolina Hurricanes in PNC arena. There isn't a bad seat in the house and it's always amazing LOUD! The folks who work at PNC are always so nice.
Had a great time. Got there early and with prepaid general parking got a handicap slot in the row closest to the arena. Although sat on the top row, was on the blue line and sight lines were excellent. Only suggestion is to extend the handrail the last three rows up in the upper sections. Old folks that are not that nimble would appreciate it. A great time in all
The game was good but no where did i see it said you couldnt carry a handbag inside. We ended up having to trek all the way back to the car to leave it there. This should be clearly stated when you buy the tickets!!
Very impressed with the fans and arena. Beer too expensive but I understand why. Ticket was cheap compared to Boston with better game experience
I attended Thursday night’s Hall of Fame game and had a great time! Cam Ward’s induction ceremony into the Hurricane’s Hall of Fame was a fantastic tribute to his stellar career as goalie. Helping win the Stanley Cup in his rookie season was cemented his legacy. The entire Hurricanes organisation really made it a special event!
From calling the ticket office to get information how the tickets work and how far it is from the elevator to the seats I was looking at getting to the people at the arena, this was a blast of a trip. Our family definitely plan another trip to PNC to see a Canes game next season. We can't wait!!
The Rangers stomped the Canes with Panarin getting the hat trick! Blues shirts were loud and proud in the house!
Game was great, experience was great. People were amazing. Only complaint was the seats were very small and narrow.
I had a great time with great people even though I was a fan of the opposite team
The Carolina Hurricanes game was Awesome! So happy we went! ❤
I’m an avid hockey fan and unfortunately unless I travel to another state this is the only venue in which to watch hockey near me. This was by far the worst experience. I remember when you could go inside and get away from the cold before the doors open but now the metal detectors are right at the entrance and you cannot get in any longer. They’ve changed to you, scan your own ticket which made things back up because the machines didn’t always work. The fans were absolutely awful to the fans of the opposing team. The cost of the concessions has gone up tremendously over the years.
The arena is great and the atmosphere is second to none. Parking was really easy and convenient. The one thing that kept me from a 5 star review is the seats. They are tiny and made for someone is is made 150 pounds at most. I’ve never been to any arena where the seats are that small.
Great game. Fun atmosphere at the Arena. View of ice was good even from 3rd level. Go Canes!
Plenty of energy. We loved the activities during the down time on the ice. We’ll be bringing the kiddos next time for sure!
The seats were good, the view was excellent, i love the nacho supreme food, but although they’re expensive. 5 stars, bravo!
The handicap seats YY were the best . Easy access from the west parking although expensive. great access to seating in arena and great view game.
Always a great game and lots of fun! Fans really get in to it!
