The NHL and the Carolina Hurricanes released the official logo to the 2011 NHL All-Star Game. The announcements of the logo has been the biggest news since the announcement of the all-star game in Raleigh. The logo is underlined with the Hurricanes logo and looks great in my opinion.
The other news was the announcement of a 5,000 ft banner to hang off the RBC Plaza in downtown. The banner will feature former All-Stars Patrick Kane, Sidney Crosby, Alex Ovechkin, and Hurricanes captain Eric Staal.  The banner should be completed by Saturday for the 5th annual Raleigh Wide [...]

Riley Nash 2007 Oilers 1st Round Pick looks to make impact for Hurricanes in 2010-2011
\The Carolina Hurricanes have only made a couple minor signings, as expected, over the last couple of weeks with the chance that some like Riley Nash could show huge return. The Hurricanes also went the way of cheap and two-way contracts to players such as Justin Pogge, Brett Carson, and Bryan Rodney.
The biggest decision the Hurricanes have made in the last couple of weeks was to give Justin Peters and Justin Pogge each two-way deals. With the deals it sees the [...]

The Carolina Hurricanes have made very few moves in July, only signing three players to contracts with the biggest being the return of Joe Corvo.  With the team going young for next season the most interesting event happening in July was the prospects camp which included first round pick Jeff Skinner.
First off in a surprise move the Hurricanes brought back defenseman Joe Corvo for another two years at a cheaper rate for a total of 4.5 million.  “Joe has been a really good player for us over the last three seasons, and we feel that this solidifies our [...]

To no one’s surprise the Hurricanes were not a player in big names of the free agent market. However, I don’t think the Hurricanes fans fully expected another loss like Whitney even though we had been warned. I kind of expected either Cullen or Whitney might be back, but the only signing would be Babchuk, which is a horrible influence on the young team. In the meantime Matt Cullen signed with his hometown team the Minnesota Wild and Ray Whitney with the PhoenixCoyotes. The only other rumblings on day one for the Hurricanes [...]

Rod Brind’Amour is the epitome of the definition of captain Brind’Amour will always be known for his leadership during the run for the cup in 2006, but to the people that know Rod and the caniac nation he will always mean so much more. Brind’Amour played for three different NHL teams during his career with his mainstay being split between the Flyers and Hurricanes.
Rod was drafted 9th overall in the 1988 by the St. Louis Blues, but would opt to play one year at Michigan State before joining the Blues at the end of the 1988-1989 season. [...]

The Carolina Hurricanes entered the draft on Friday with 11 picks, most in the league. The Hurricanes began with the 7th overall pick. With Cam Fowler and Brandon Gormley falling farther than most expected, I was sure one of them would be drafted with the 7th pick, but instead the Hurricanes went after another forward named Jeff Skinner. Skinner was a figure skater til the age of 13, but then turned completely to hockey. Last season while playing for the Kitchener Rangers Skinner scored 70 goals and had 20 more during the playoffs. [...]

Tonight will be one of the biggest nights for the Hurricanes for years to come. With the team going into full rebuild mode selecting the right players at tonight’s NHL Draft is key. The Hurricanes hold the most picks in this years draft with 11 selections, including 4 in the first two rounds.
The Hurricanes begin with the number 7 overall pick in the draft. If available I think Jim Rutherford would like to go with one of the top 3 defence in the draft, Erik Grudbranson, Cam Fowler, and Branding Gormly. If none of temp are [...]
