SEASON HIGHLIGHTS
• The Hurricanes open the season against their 2006 Eastern Conference Finals
opponent, Buffalo, and raise their 2006 Stanley Cup Champions banner to the RBC Center’s
rafters in front of an overflow crowd of 18,840 – October 4, 2006.
• Hurricanes goaltender Cam Ward records his first NHL regular-season shutout as
Carolina scores a 5-0 win vs. Washington – November 9, 2006.
• Hurricanes forwards Eric Staal and Justin Williams represent the Eastern Conference
at the NHL All-Star Game in Dallas, each notching a goal. It marks the first time since 1999

• Ray Whitney sets a franchise record scoring three even-strength goals in a 1:40 span in
the second period of Carolina’s 5-2 win at Boston. The feat marks the fastest three evenstrength

• Hurricanes establish a new single-season attendance record of more than 650,000 fans
