Season of play of professional ice hockey team From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 2022–23 Carolina Hurricanes season was the 44th season for the National Hockey League (NHL) franchise that was established in June 1979, and 25th season since the franchise relocated from the Hartford Whalers to start the 1997–98 NHL season.
