<td class="bodytext" align="left" valign="top">The history of the Carolina Hurricanes began with the Hartford Whalers of Connecticut in 1979. The then new franchise quickly established a noisy and supportive fan base. Their first Stanley Cup run ended in defeat against defending champions the Montreal Canadiens, but the Whalers went on to make seven straight playoffs between 1986 and 1992.<BR>
The last Hartford Whalers goal was scored in 1997. Soon after, management moved the team to Carolina despite vocal public outcry in Connecticut. Playing first in Greensboro, the team eventually settled in to their new home in Carolina.<BR>
