MANAGEMENT
PETER KARMANOS JR.
CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER / OWNER / GOVERNOR
Peter Karmanos Jr., holds the dual role as the principal owner/governor and chief executive officer of the Carolina Hurricanes and as the chairman and chief executive
officer of Compuware Corporation. With his partners Thomas Thewes and Jim Rutherford, Karmanos acquired the NHL franchise on June 28, 1994—the afternoon of the 1994 NHL
Entry Draft. After three financially unsuccessful seasons in Hartford, Conn., and after an agreement on a new facility between the team and the state of Connecticut could not be
reached, Karmanos announced he would relocate the franchise to Raleigh, NC, on May 6, 1997. There, Karmanos signed a 40-year lease with the city of Raleigh and the state.
Since their arrival in North Carolina, the Hurricanes have enjoyed tremendous all-around success. On the ice, the team has advanced to the Conference Finals three
times in the last 10 seasons, capturing Eastern Conference titles in 2002 and 2006 and the Stanley Cup in 2006. Off of the ice, the Hurricanes have become a key component of the
sporting landscape in North Carolina, and in 2009 were recognized as the top hockey franchise and second-ranked franchise in all of sports by ESPN in the “Ultimate Standings,” a
collection of data and survey results that takes into account a team’s on-ice or on-field success, as well as its community impact and overall fan experience. The spotlight shined on
the Hurricanes franchise again in January 2011, when the team and city of Raleigh earned tremendous praise for the successful 2011 NHL All-Star Weekend.
In the summer of 1998, Karmanos formed Gale Force Holdings to manage his hockey interests, which include the Carolina Hurricanes and PNC Arena; the Florida
Everblades of the ECHL and Germain Arena in Ft. Myers, Fla.; and the Plymouth Whalers of the Ontario Hockey League and Compuware Arena. In the fall of 2011, a new subsidiary
of Gale Force Holdings, LP, was created called Hurricanes Holdings, LLC, which features the Hurricanes and the management of PNC Arena. Since that time, 15 new investor groups
have joined Karmanos in the ownership of Hurricanes Holdings, further solidifying the franchise’s financial structure.
Karmanos attended Wayne State University in Detroit. He founded Compuware in 1973 with two partners who, with Karmanos, pooled their tax return money to start the
company. With 4,500 employees and fiscal year 2011 revenues of $1 billion, Compuware people and software make technology make a difference for leading organizations worldwide,
including 46 of the top 50 Fortune 500 companies and 12 of the 20 most visited U.S. websites. Karmanos’ initiative and business prowess were recognized in 1989 by the Institute of
American Entrepreneurs, which named him Entrepreneur of the Year. In April 1999, Karmanos ensured that his company would not lose sight of its roots when he decided to relocate
more than 4,100 highly-skilled jobs from Compuware’s headquarters in Farmington Hills, Mich., to Campus Martius, a business district in the heart of downtown Detroit.
The same competitive spirit that led to Karmanos’ success as an entrepreneur also fuels his 30-year sponsorship of youth hockey programs. In Detroit, Karmanos sponsors
the Plymouth Whalers (players ages 20-under), which was the first American club to play in the Ontario Hockey League. Compuware youth hockey programs, including the Plymouth
Whalers, have produced many NHL stars over the years including Pat LaFontaine, Al Iafrate, Mike Modano, Eric Lindros and Kevin Hatcher. Countless youth hockey programs benefit
each season through the efforts and sponsorship of Carolina Hurricanes and Compuware. In December 1997, Karmanos was chosen as one of four recipients of the Lester Patrick
Award. Originating in 1966, the award is given annually to individuals who are recognized for “outstanding service to hockey in the United States.” In 2010, Karmanos received the
Ontario Hockey League’s Bill Long Award, presented in recognition and appreciation of an individual who has made an outstanding contribution to the OHL, and was inducted into the
Michigan Sports Hall of Fame.
In addition to his business and hockey interests, Karmanos is widely known for his philanthropy, particularly in the area of cancer research. In 1995, Karmanos established
the Barbara Ann Karmanos Cancer Institute in Detroit, with donations that now total in excess of $60 million. The institute is one of only 39 in the United States granted “comprehensive
cancer center” status by the National Institute of Health, and the only one of the 39 named after a woman.
A committed supporter of the Triangle area, Karmanos continues to actively run Compuware Corporation. Karmanos resides in the Detroit area with his wife Danialle,
and their sons Socrates, Leonidas, Spiros and Aristides. He now has seven sons and nine grandchildren. Danialle—in addition to her ongoing work as a nationally acclaimed video
producer—founded Danialle Karmanos’ Work It Out (DKWIO). A 501(c)3 organization, DKWIO fights childhood obesity by providing kids with the tools they need to make healthy
choices. By helping kids achieve health in mind, body and spirit, DKWIO has touched the lives of thousands of at-risk children in the Detroit and Triangle communities.
As an award-winning writer, producer and director, in 2008 Danialle was tapped by Governor Jennifer Granholm to serve on the newly-chartered Michigan Film Office
Advisory Council. In a 2010 Michigan-wide election, Danialle was elected to serve an eight-year term on the Wayne State University Board of Governors. She also works tirelessly
on behalf of the Karmanos Cancer Institute, partnering with the organization to develop memorable creative content. Her creative talents also led Danialle to become a founding
member, Board member and past chair of the critically-acclaimed Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit (MOCAD). She also serves on the boards of the Michigan Opera Theatre and
the College for Creative Studies, and is a trustee for the Parade Company, the non-profit organization responsible for the renowned America’s Thanksgiving Parade and numerous
other family-oriented events in Metropolitan Detroit.

MANAGEMENT
JIM RUTHERFORD
PRESIDENT / GENERAL MANAGER
Jim Rutherford, a former National Hockey League goaltender, is the franchise’s seventh general manager and the only general manager in the history of the
Carolina Hurricanes. Under Rutherford, the Hurricanes have earned a 515-461-152-20 regular-season record since arriving in North Carolina prior to the 1997-98 season,
including a pair of trips to the Stanley Cup Final and the first Stanley Cup Championship in franchise history in 2006. Rutherford’s management efforts were recognized
in 2002 and 2006, when The Hockey News named him “Executive of the Year,” and in 2006 when he was voted by his NHL management peers as the Sporting News’
“Executive of the Year.” In 2006, he was named the Triangle’s “Businessperson of the Year” by the Triangle Business Journal.
The Hurricanes captured their first Eastern Conference championship in 2002, when they defeated Toronto in the Eastern Conference Finals, and again won
the Prince of Wales Trophy in 2006 when they defeated Buffalo in seven games. Rutherford brought the first major professional sports championship to North Carolina
when the Hurricanes defeated Edmonton 3-1 in the deciding seventh game of the 2006 Stanley Cup Final in Raleigh. The Hurricanes have won the Southeast Division
title three times, advanced to the conference finals three of the last nine seasons and established new franchise records for wins and points in a season in 2005-06.
In addition to their on-ice success, the Hurricanes also have been recognized for their impact and success in North Carolina. In 2008, the Turnkey Brand Index
rated the team’s brand 20th among North American professional sports teams. In 2009, the Hurricanes were recognized as the top hockey franchise and second-ranked
franchise in all of sports by ESPN in the “Ultimate Standings,” a collection of data and survey results that takes into account a team’s on-ice or on-field success as well
as its community impact and overall fan experience. An important part of that impact on the Triangle has been the major events that the franchise has attracted to the
area. Rutherford spearheaded the efforts to bring the 2004 NHL Entry Draft and the 2011 NHL All-Star Game to Raleigh, both of which were deemed as tremendous
successes in both the local and international media.
Rutherford has stocked the current club with bright, young talent through the Entry Draft, free agency and trades, to go along with a base of veteran
leadership. He has a proven history of success in the NHL Entry Draft. Selections like Eric Staal, Cam Ward, Jeff Skinner, Justin Faulk and Jamie McBain help to form
the core of the current team, while prospects like Zach Boychuk, Zac Dalpe, Drayson Bowman and Ryan Murphy will play integral roles in the team’s future. Rutherford
also acquired several key members of the current team through trades and free agency, including forwards Jordan Staal, Tuomo Ruutu, Chad LaRose, Jussi Jokinen, Jiri
Tlusty and Alexander Semin and defensemen Tim Gleason and Joni Pitkanen.
Rutherford is in his 19th year as general manager in 2012-13, making him the longest-tenured general manager in franchise history and the second-longest
tenured general manager currently serving in the NHL. As president of the Hurricanes, Rutherford oversees the operation of the Hurricanes, the Florida Everblades (ECHL)
and the Plymouth Whalers (OHL). He was originally named the team’s president and general manager when the KTR Partnership—the ownership group comprised of
Peter Karmanos Jr., Thomas Thewes and Rutherford—purchased the Hartford Whalers on June 28, 1994. In Nov. 2011, the Hurricanes announced that Rutherford was
part of a new group of investors who were taking ownership stakes in the team.
A veteran of 13 NHL seasons, Rutherford began his professional goaltending career in 1969 as a first-round selection of the Detroit Red Wings. While playing
for Pittsburgh, Toronto, Los Angeles and Detroit, Rutherford appeared in 457 games and collected 14 career shutouts. For five seasons he also served as the Red Wings’
player representative. Rutherford played for Team Canada in the World Championships in Vienna in 1977 and Moscow in 1979.
At the conclusion of his playing career, Rutherford joined Compuware to serve as director of hockey operations for Compuware Sports Corporation. Originally
hired in September 1983, he is beginning his 29th season with the Compuware hockey family. With Compuware Sports Corporation in the 1980s, Rutherford gained
a wealth of experience in youth hockey and junior programs. He started his management career by guiding Compuware Sports Corporation’s purchase of the Windsor
Spitfires of the Ontario Hockey League in April 1984. During the next four years, Rutherford acted as general manager of the Spitfires. In 1988, the Spitfires advanced
to the Memorial Cup Finals with a perfect 12-0 run to the OHL Championship. The following season, he led Compuware’s efforts to bring the first American-based OHL
franchise to Detroit on Dec. 11, 1989. Rutherford received the 1987 “Executive of the Year” award in both the OHL and the CHL, and won the OHL “Executive of the Year”
award again in 1988. In 2009, he was recognized by the Ontario Minor Hockey Association (OMHA) as the “All-Time Executive” on its “All-Time Great Team,” which also
included forwards Wayne Gretzky, Doug Gilmour and Syl Apps, defensemen Bobby Orr and Rob Blake, goaltender Curtis Joseph and coach Roger Neilson.
Jim and his wife, Leslie, live in North Raleigh with their son James. Jim’s daughter Andrea also lives in Raleigh and teaches visually impaired/blind students
for Wake County schools. In addition to his work with the team, Jim serves on the NHL’s Competition Committee and the Board of Directors for Brier Creek Country Club.

MANAGEMENT
JASON KARMANOS
EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENT / ASSISTANT GENERAL MANAGER
Jason Karmanos is in his 15th year in the hockey operations department for the Carolina Hurricanes. Karmanos rejoined the organization in June 2008 as
executive director of hockey operations and returned to his role as vice president and assistant general manager in December 2009. He works with President/General
Manager Jim Rutherford and Director of Hockey Operations Ron Francis in player evaluations, contract negotiations and player movements. His other responsibilities
include overseeing the day-to-day operations of the hockey club and the Hurricanes’ minor-league affiliates in the AHL and ECHL. Karmanos served as the team’s vice
president and assistant general manager from 1998-2007 and was in that role when the Hurricanes captured the Stanley Cup in 2006, marking the first championship
of his career.
Karmanos played hockey collegiately for Harvard University, graduating in 1996. He attended the Pittsburgh Penguins’ training camp upon the conclusion of
his collegiate career, but had his professional career cut short when he suffered an eye injury while playing for the Raleigh Ice Caps during the 1996-97 season. Upon
his retirement from hockey, Karmanos worked for an investment bank located in Boston.
Jason and his wife, Christy, reside in Wake Forest and have four daughters, Ella, Kayla, Anna and Lila.
RON FRANCIS
VICE PRESIDENT OF HOCKEY OPERATIONS / ALTERNATE GOVERNOR
Ron Francis is in his seventh season in management for the Carolina Hurricanes, and was promoted to vice president of hockey operations in June 2012. As
vice president of hockey operations, Francis works directly with General Manager Jim Rutherford on all hockey-related matters. In addition to his hockey operations
duties, Francis also serves as one of the teams’ alternate governors.
Following a career in which he established himself as the greatest player in Hurricanes franchise history, Francis re-joined the organization in November
2006 as the team’s director of player development. He was promoted to assistant general manager on Oct. 4, 2007, but returned to the team’s locker room on Dec.
3, 2008, when he joined new Head Coach Paul Maurice behind the bench as associate head coach. While serving as a coach, Francis maintained a voice in the
Hurricanes’ front office decision-making, serving as the team’s director of player personnel. He returned to the front office full-time in June 2011, accepting the role
of director of hockey operations.
Francis announced his retirement on Sept. 14, 2005, following a 23-year NHL career with Hartford, Pittsburgh, Carolina and Toronto. In 1,731 NHL regularseason games, Francis scored 549 goals and earned 1,249 assists (1,798 points), to rank him fourth all-time on the league’s points list behind Wayne Gretzky, Mark
Messier and Gordie Howe. Francis’ 1,249 assists rank second only to Gretzky (1,963), and he ranks third on the games-played list behind Howe (1,767) and Messier (1,756).
The Hartford Whalers drafted Francis in the first round, fourth overall, in the 1981 NHL Entry Draft. Francis played with the Whalers for 10 seasons before
joining Pittsburgh at the trading deadline of the 1990-91 season. He spent seven full seasons with the Penguins before rejoining the organization that drafted him, when
the relocated Carolina Hurricanes signed him as a free agent on July 13, 1998. In 16 seasons with the Hartford/Carolina franchise, Francis played in 1,186 games, scoring
382 goals and earning 793 assists for 1,175 points -- all of which are franchise records. The Hurricanes officially retired Francis’ No. 10 jersey to the arena’s rafters on
Jan. 28, 2006, and on Nov. 12, 2007, Francis was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame.
During his playing career, Francis played in four NHL All-Star games, and he won the Lady Byng Trophy (sportsmanship and gentlemanly conduct) three times
(1995, 1998, 2002), the Frank J. Selke Trophy (best defensive forward) once (1995) and the King Clancy Memorial Trophy (leadership/humanitarian/community work)
once (2002). He also won the Alka-Seltzer Plus Award in 1995, when he led the NHL in plus/minus, and was a key member of the Penguins’ Stanley Cup-winning teams
in 1991 and 1992.
Ron and his wife, Mary Lou, have a daughter, Kaitlyn, and two sons, Michael and Connor. They reside in Raleigh.

who was named head coach of the Carolina Hurricanes on Nov. 28, 2011, is the 12th person to serve as head coach in franchise history, and the third since the team
relocated to North Carolina in 1997.
This marks Muller’s first head coaching position in the NHL; he previously served as a head coach for the Milwaukee Admirals in the American Hockey League
(AHL). The Kingston, Ont., native had a record of 10-6-0 with Milwaukee during the 2011-12 season, after taking the job as head coach for the Nashville Predators’ top
minor-league affiliate in July 2011.
Prior to joining the Admirals, Muller spent five seasons as an assistant coach with the Montreal Canadiens, helping the Habs reach the playoffs in four
consecutive seasons, including a trip to the Eastern Conference Final in 2010. During his second season behind the bench in 2007-08, Montreal went 47-25-10 (105
points), marking its best record since 1988-89. Muller worked extensively with the Habs’ penalty killing unit throughout his tenure in Montreal, helping it finish in the top
half of the League in each season under his watch, including a seventh-place ranking in 2010-11 and a perfect 21-for-21 performance during the 2011 Stanley Cup Playoffs.
Prior to joining the Canadiens on June 20, 2006, Muller spent one season as head coach with the Queen’s University Golden Gaels in his hometown of
Kingston. He also served as an assistant coach for Canada at the 2005 Lotto Cup and the 2006 Under-18 World Championship.
As a player, Muller totaled 357 goals and 602 assists (959 points) in 1,349 career NHL games over 19 seasons with the New Jersey Devils, Montreal
Canadiens, New York Islanders, Toronto Maple Leafs, Florida Panthers and Dallas Stars from 1984-2003. He skated in 127 career Stanley Cup playoff games, totaling
69 points (33g, 36a), including the Stanley Cup-clinching goal for the Canadiens in the 1993 Stanley Cup Final. He also reached the Final with Dallas in 2000, when the
Stars fell to New Jersey.
A six-time NHL All-Star (1985, 1986, 1988, 1990, 1992, 1993), Muller posted 30-or-more goals five times in his career, 20-or-more goals nine times, and had
seven 70-point seasons. He established career highs with New Jersey in 1987-88 and Montreal in 1992-93, totaling 37 goals, 57 assists and 94 points in each of those
seasons. Muller served as captain for both the Devils (1989-91) and the Canadiens (1994-95).
Prior to turning professional, Muller played junior hockey in the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) for Kingston and Guelph, and represented Canada at the 1984
Olympic Games. He made his NHL debut for New Jersey straight out of junior hockey in 1984, after the Devils selected him second overall in the 1984 NHL Entry Draft,
behind only Mario Lemieux. In addition to the 1984 Olympics, Muller also represented Canada at four World Championships (1985, 1986, 1987, 1989) and at the 1984
World Junior Championship.
Muller and his wife, Stacey, have four daughters – twins Brittney and Kourtney, Bryelle and Kira.

Phillip Di Giuseppe, 38th overall pick by the Carolina Hurricanes, shakes hands with Greg Stefan during day two of the 2012
NHL Entry Draft at Consol Energy Center on June 23, 2012 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Daniel Altshuller poses with Jim Rutherford, Ron Francis and Jason Karmanos after being drafted 69th overall in the
2012 NHL Entry Draft.
The Carolina Hurricanes selected nine players at the 2012 NHL Draft at the CONSOL
Energy Center in Pittsburgh, PA, including five forwards, two defensemen and two
goaltenders. The Hurricanes traded the eighth overall pick to Pittsburgh on the draft’s
opening night in the deal that brought center Jordan Staal to the Hurricanes.
Just five picks later, the Hurricanes used pick No. 120 in the draft on defenseman Jaccob
Slavin from Chicago of the United States Hockey League (USHL). The Erie, CO, native
scored three goals and earned 27 assists (30 points) in 2011-12, while playing in all 60
of the Steel’s regular-season games. The 17-year-old posted a plus-6 plus/minus rating,
despite his team allowing 33 more goals than it scored. Slavin is committed to Colorado
College of the Western Collegiate Hockey Association (WCHA) for the 2013-14 season.
Carolina used its first of two second-round picks (38th overall) to select left wing Phil
Di Giuseppe (5'11", 197 lbs.) from the University of Michigan. Di Giuseppe, 18, notched
11 goals and earned 15 assists (26 points) in 40 games with the Wolverines during
his freshman season, and was an honorable mention for the Central Collegiate Hockey
Association (CCHA) All-Rookie Team. The Maple, Ont., native wrapped up his first
collegiate season with nine points (5g, 4a) in Michigan’s final eight games.
Later in the second round, the Hurricanes used the 47th overall pick on left wing Brock
McGinn from the Guelph Storm of the Ontario Hockey League (OHL). McGinn, 18,
completed his second season of major junior hockey in 2011-12, notching 12 goals and
earning seven assists (19 points) in 33 games. He missed more that two months of
action after suffering a wrist injury in December. The Fergus, Ont., native is coached by
former Carolina forward Scott Walker in Guelph, and was named an alternate captain
for the team prior to the start of the season. He is the younger brother of Colorado
Avalanche forward Jamie McGinn, and forward Tye McGinn who was drafted by
Philadelphia in 2010.
In the third round, Carolina used the 69th overall pick to select goaltender Daniel Altshuller
from the OHL’s Oshawa Generals. Altshuller, 17, played his first season of major junior
hockey in 2011-12, and posted an 11-16-2 record, a 3.55 goals-against average and a .900
save percentage in 30 regular-season games. The Ottawa, Ont., native went 2-2 with a
3.87 goals-against average and a .918 save percentage in five playoff appearances after
winning the No. 1 role from fourth-year goaltender Kevin Bailie.
With their first of three fourth-round picks, the Hurricanes used the 99th overall selection
on forward Erik Karlsson from Sweden. Karlsson, 17, spent the majority of 2011-12 with
Frolunda Jr. of Sweden’s junior league, and notched 14 goals and 19 assists (33 points)
in 47 games. The Lerum, Sweden, native also added three goals and seven assists (10
points) in four games with Frolunda’s under-18 junior team in 2011-12. In April, he earned
three points (1g, 2a) in six games as Sweden captured the silver medal at the International
Ice Hockey Federation 2012 Under-18 World Championship in the Czech Republic.
Later in the fourth round, Carolina used the 115th overall pick on defenseman Trevor
Carrick from Mississauga St. Michael’s of the OHL. Carrick, 17, finished his first OHL
season with six goals, 13 assists (19 points) and 64 penalty minutes, while playing in
all 68 of the Majors’ regular-season games. The Stouffville, Ont., native is the younger
brother of Toronto Maple Leafs 2010 fourth-round pick, Sam Carrick.
86 / 2012-13 Media Guide
In the fifth round, Carolina used the 129th overall pick on left wing Brendan Woods from
the University of Wisconsin (WCHA). Woods, 20, completed his first collegiate season
in 2011-12, scoring five goals, earning five assists (10 points) and totaling 67 penalty
minutes in 34 games with the Badgers. The Humboldt, Sask., native spent two seasons
in the USHL with Chicago and Muskegon before beginning his collegiate career.
The Hurricanes used their sixth-round pick to add goaltender Collin Olson to the
organization. Olson, 18, spent the 2011-12 season with the United States National Team

career. He worked for the New Jersey Devils organization from
2001-2006, serving as Albany’s assistant coach for four seasons
and working as a special assignment scout with the Devils during

three seasons (1996-1999).
In August of 1999 Kinnear signed with the Atlanta Thrashers

appearing in four games with Atlanta. He split the 1999-2000
season between Atlanta and the Thrashers’ IHL affiliate, the

2000, and played 14 games with Albany before being forced to

AFFILIATIONS
CRAIG BRUSH
Craig Brush, President of the Florida Everblades, along with
partners Peter Karmanos and the late Thomas Thewes, founded
the Everblades and Germain Arena in 1998. Brush, a native of
Milton, Ontario, oversees all aspects of both the hockey club and
the sports complex.
In 14 seasons, the Everblades have hosted 3,071,545 fans
in 502 regular season games, an average of 6,119 per game,
and have led the ECHL in attendance in five of their 14 seasons.
Florida won its first Kelly Cup title in 2012, winning the Cup on
home ice in front of a standing-room only crowd of 7,290 fans
on May 23, 2012. Germain Arena and the Everblades hosted the
2003 Compuware/ECHL All-Star Game and have led the Kelly
Cup Playoffs in attendance six times.
The Everblades have earned a post-season berth in 14
consecutive seasons in Southwest Florida. During the 2003-04
GREG POSS
PRESIDENT AND GENERAL MANAGER
season, Florida captured the Eastern Conference title and made
its first ever trip to the Kelly Cup Finals. After capturing the 200405 American Conference Championship, the Everblades became
the first team in Kelly Cup history to make back-to-back trips
to the Kelly Cup Finals. Florida was also awarded the regularseason championship Brabham Cup following the 1998-99 and
2008-09 seasons.
Brush played hockey for three seasons at Cornell University
and was a member of the 1970 undefeated NCAA Championship
team. He has also coached in the Compuware youth hockey
program for many years.
Craig and his wife, Kyle, split time between Estero, Florida,
and Birmingham, Michigan. The couple has three sons, Matt,
Tyler and Patrick, as well as three granddaughters, Anna, Mary
and Jane.
HEAD COACH
Poss, 46, enters his third season as head coach of the Florida
Everblades, and is just the fourth head coach in the 13-year
history of the franchise. In 2011-12, the Green Bay, WI, native led
the Everblades to their first Kelly Cup title in the team’s 14-year
existence.
Poss came to Florida after serving as an assistant coach with
the ECHL’s Ontario Reign in 2009-10. Prior to joining the Reign,
Poss spent eight seasons as a head coach in the German Elite
League (DEL) with Iserlohn, Nuremberg and Mannheim. In 200607, he helped Mannheim become the first team in DEL history
to finish in first place in the regular season, win the inter-league
tournament and capture the league championship in the same
year, after leading the club to a 35-9-8 record.
In addition to his club team experience, Poss has also gained
experience in international competitions. In 2009, he served as an
assistant coach with the USA Hockey team that finished second
in the Deutschland Cup. In 2004 and 2005, Poss served as head
coach of the German Senior National teams that participated
in the Deutschland Cup and 2005 IIHF World Championships.
His first international coaching experience came in 2003, as an
assistant coach for the American team that finished first in the
Deutschland Cup. In 2004, he again served as an assistant coach
for Team USA, as the Americans won bronze at the IIHF World
Championships in Prague.
As a player, Poss played on the professional level for three
seasons in the American Hockey League (AHL) and International
Hockey League (IHL). In two seasons from 1989-91, Poss tallied
44 points (17g, 27a) and 103 penalty minutes in 109 games with
the Maine Mariners (AHL). In 1991-92, Poss skated in 18 games
with the Peoria Rivermen (IHL), earning five points (1g, 4a) and 41
penalty minutes before suffering a career-ending knee injury.
Prior to turning professional, Poss played four seasons at the
University of Wisconsin from 1985-1989, posting 25 points in 101
career games.

FOUNDATION ACTIVITIES
AND FUNDRAISING EVENTS
FOUNDATION DONATIONS
The Carolina Hurricanes Kids ‘N Community Foundation strives to meet the educational, social, cultural and health-related needs of our community by offering unique
resources and financial support to local youth-oriented organizations. Since its inception in 1997, the Kids ‘N Community Foundation has donated more than $10 million in cash and
in-kind services.
During the 2011-12 season, the Kids ‘N Community Foundation donated $534,852 in cash to 53 different North Carolina children’s charities and foundations. Each donation
is required to meet the health and educational needs of children of underserved populations in our community. Specification of how the funds will be used and periodic updates
on the progress of the programs are required for each agency. The money was donated during the Kids ‘N Community Foundation’s two grant cycles, once during the fall and once
during the spring.
FOUNDATION FUNDRAISERS
The Kids ‘N Community Foundation has increased its impact in the community thanks to unique and interactive fundraising opportunities for our fans. The Foundation’s largest
fundraisers of the season – the annual Golf Tournament, Casino Night and Wine Tasting, Skate with the Canes and the Hurricanes Alumni Game – combined for more than $435,998
in charitable funds raised. The success of these events, as well as other fundraisers throughout the year relies on support from fans and Hurricanes players, coaches, front office
executives, broadcasters and staff who attend each major fundraiser.
Every home game features a silent auction showcasing autographed jerseys, equipment, photos and much more. The game-night auctions raised $136,000 in 2011-12. In
addition, online auctions generated more than $27,648.
Other fundraisers during the regular season included the Points for Kids program, the Paper/Magnetic Hearts campaign, the We Love the Hurricanes Luncheon, 24 Hour APC
Bike Challenge and the Holiday Mystery Pucks sales.
COMMUNITY INITIATIVES
PICK UP A BOOK AND READ
The Pick Up a Book and Read program, which gives third, fourth and fifth grade students incentives to read, had a resoundingly successful year. Record numbers of participating
students, classrooms and schools read a combined total of more than 4.4 million pages. The schools that produced the most pages read received special assemblies with Stormy, and
the top three schools in 2011-12 were Penny Road Elementary School, Davis Drive Elementary School and Leesville Elementary School. Pick Up a Book and Read also continued the
optional essay contest. Ten essay finalists came to PNC Arena along with their parents and teachers for a recognition lunch, which featured Stormy and a surprise visit by Eric Staal.
HEALTH ‘N’ HOCKEY
Health ‘N’ Hockey encourages kids of all ages to increase their level of physical activity and to improve their healthy eating habits. The Carolina Hurricanes partnered with
Be Active North Carolina and the YMCA of the Triangle for our first year of Health ‘N’ Hockey. More than 1,000 kids from the YMCA of the Triangle branches attended one of three
Health ‘N’ Hockey events during the 2011-12 season. Kids who participated attended a Hurricanes practice, exercised with Stormy and listened to speakers including Pete Friesen,
a representative from Be Active North Carolina and a Hurricanes player. Each child left with a scorecard to encourage them to exercise for a five-week period and then mail it in
for a prize. Participating Hurricanes players included Jay Harrison, Brandon Sutter and Tim Brent.
NHL DIVERSITY TEAM
The Capital City Crew completed its third full season as part of the NHL Hockey is for Everyone program. Thanks to grants from the Kids ‘N Community Foundation, the NHLPA
Goals and Dreams Foundation, the NHL Foundation, PNC Bank and equipment donations from the community and Eric Staal, the Crew provides the full hockey experience at no cost
to participants. The roster is made up of 40 kids ages 8-14 from local Boys and Girls Clubs, and the season consists of 15 on-ice sessions which included practices, scrimmages
and 12 sessions of the life skills program. The season wrapped up with an awards dinner hosted by the Carolina Ale House, where Justin Faulk was on hand to present trophies
and take pictures with the players.
COMMUNITY STAFF DAYS
On July 27, 2012, Carolina Hurricanes staff volunteered at the Washington Elementary Boys & Girls Club and the Tammy Lynn center for Developmental Disabilities. Staff
represented the departments of Promotions, Event Management, Community Relations, Youth & Amateur Hockey, Premium Services, Corporate Sales, Ticket Sales, Marketing
and CanesVision.
COMMUNITY WALKS
The Carolina Hurricanes formed teams to participate in the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure, Triangle Heart Walk, Walk for Hope and Friesen 5K. On Sept. 26, 2011, Jamie
McBain, Tim Brent, Drayson Bowman and Zach Boychuk joined the Canes with Heart team at the Heart Walk held at PNC Arena. Canes with Heart generated nearly $6,500 in
funds for the American Heart Association. Team Canes for a Cure recruited 68 members who raised $8,010 for Susan G. Komen For the Cure: Triangle Affiliate in June 2012.
In addition, the Carolina Hurricanes had great representation from our organization and fans at the Walk for Hope and the Friesen 5K.
TICKET PROGRAMS
HURRICANES HEROES
Hurricanes Heroes is a program in which tickets are donated to the Kids ‘N Community Foundation by local businesses and season ticket holders. The
tickets are then distributed by the Kids ‘N Community Foundation to local children’s charities and organizations at no cost. Nearly 1,000 tickets were donated
to non-profit organizations in our community during the 2011-12 season.
HOLIDAY TICKET SPECIAL NIGHTS
The Hurricanes held several special holiday donation events, allowing fans to receive buy-one-get-one vouchers in exchange for donations to help those in need during the
holiday season. In 2011-12, the events included: a food drive for the Food Bank of Central and Eastern North Carolina and InterFaith Food Shuttle, a toy drive for Toys for Tots, Wake
County Human Services, InterAct of Wake County, Helping Hands Mission and a military assist drive to benefit military personnel through the USO of North Carolina.

PLAYER EFFORTS
ERIC’S ENTOURAGE
For the sixth consecutive season, Carolina Hurricanes Captain Eric Staal and his wife, Tanya, showed their support for children in our community by providing a 12-person,
all-inclusive luxury suite every home game for different non-profit children’s organizations. Eric personally purchases the suite for each Carolina Hurricanes home game for deserving
organizations to enjoy. The organization who gets the privilege of using the suite assumes the role of Eric’s Entourage for the night, and each kid receives an autographed Eric’s
Entourage t-shirt.
CAM’S CHAMPS
Cam Ward and his wife, Cody, displayed their support of athletes with special needs through an all-inclusive charity suite, Cam’s Champs. Athletes from the Miracle League
of the Triangle, Triangle Special Hockey Association and Special Olympics of North Carolina were the primary focus of Cam’s Champs, but other all-inclusive teams such as the
Dream Sports Center All-Stars, NC Sports for Special Kids and the NC Therapeutic Riding Center also became Cam’s Champs for a game. Several of the groups were fortunate to
have the opportunity to meet Ward post-game.
ST. BALDRICK’S
The Carolina Hurricanes players, staff and fans once again raised funds and awareness for the St. Baldrick’s Foundation in 2011-12. On Feb. 23, 2012, professional barbers
were on hand to shave heads on PNC Arena’s front lawn. In exchange for losing their locks, fans received two tickets to the game that night. John Forslund commentated as Tripp
Tracy had his head shaved during intermission. There were a total of 207 fans that shaved their heads, and $53,541 was raised for the St. Baldrick’s Foundation.
MILITARY SUITE
The Carolina Hurricanes partnered with Volvo Construction Equipment to host a military appreciation suite each home game. The military suite gave North Carolina active
duty military, veterans and wounded soldiers the opportunity to experience a game in an all-inclusive, luxury suite. Some of the military branches and groups invited to the military
suite included Wounded Warriors, Pope Air Force Base, Cherry Point, Fort Bragg, Seymour Johnson, Veterans of Modern Warfare, USO of NC, Camp Lejeune, the National Guard
and the Coast Guard.
HOLIDAY HELPERS
REX Hospital, NC Children’s Hospital, Duke Children’s Hospital and WakeMed Hospital each welcomed special guests on Dec. 19, 2011, as groups of Hurricanes players visited
with patients at each hospital. The players signed autographs, took pictures and left Hurricanes goodies with each patient.
In addition to the hospital visits, four Hurricanes players treated four deserving kids from Durham Nativity School and PLM Families Together to holiday shopping at Target.
Jamie McBain, Anthony Stewart, Tim Brent and Jay Harrison each received a $250 Target gift card, courtesy of the Carolina Hurricanes, to spend on the child. Channeling the
holiday spirit, each player insisted that his shopping partner have plenty of holiday gifts to share with their family and even chipped in extra money to make sure this would be an
unforgettable holiday.

COMMUNITY RELATIONS
FAN DEVELOPMENT
STORMY
When he’s not keeping it cool at PNC Arena, Hurricanes mascot Stormy takes his act on the road to share his
Caniac cheer. The loveable ice hog made an additional 230 appearances in the Triangle and surrounding communities,
including schools, community events, churches, hospitals, birthday parties, awareness walks and many more
charitable events during the year. From slinging shirts to fans during games, to cutting birthday cake, or even being
someone’s walking buddy at a 5K, Stormy is sure to bring a smile to everyone’s face.
STORM SQUAD
The Eye Care Associates Storm Squad, formed in 1999, is the NHL’s original fan development team. They
bring enthusiasm and excitement to Hurricanes games, community events and private functions throughout
the year. When the members were not helping the Caniacs cheer on the home team, they could be found at
130 different events during the 2011-12 season, ranging from awareness walks and charity golf tournaments to
community festivals and fundraising events. They also get to know fans first-hand at Carolina Ale House Cool Bar
stops, where members sell raffle tickets benefiting the Kids ‘N Community Foundation and talk hockey with fans
who are watching the Canes on the road.
For the fourth year in a row, girls ages 7-13 had the opportunity to be members of the Junior Storm Squad.
Participants spent an entire day with the Eye Care Associates Storm Squad. The clinic activities focused on
leadership, self-confidence, perseverance and determination for young girls. The experience wrapped up with the
Junior Storm Squad joining their role models at a game to exhibit all they learned, including signature Eye Care
Associates Storm Squad moves and cheers.
The energetic women and men of the Eye Care Associates Storm Squad are favorites of Caniacs, the
media and even opposing teams’ fans. Their personalities, love of hockey and passion for cheering with the fans
entertain people of all ages.
RON THE REF
Ron the Ref has been a staple at Hurricanes home games from their establishment in Raleigh, serving as the
fun, friendly in-game host. As a certified referee, he is always happy to have a little chalk-talk with fans who want
to know more about the game, too. He helps host activities and promotions during games, at Cool Bars events and
gives some Hockey 101 chalk-talk at Hurricanes U. Ron even makes appearances during school assemblies with his
favorite ice hog, Stormy.
KIDS CLUB
The Hurricanes Hockey Kids Club has been inducting young fans into Caniac Nation for five seasons, striving to develop a strong foundation for children so that they may
become lifelong fans. Kids ages 12 and under can join the club, led by Stormy himself. Members receive exclusive merchandise, ticket deals and much more. The 2011-12 season
held the club’s most exciting, successful “members-only” event, which included an autograph session with Jeff Skinner, Justin Faulk, Jamie McBain and Drayson Bowman, as well
as inflatables, games, trivia and a behind the scenes look at PNC Arena.
HURRICANES UNIVERSITY
Caniacs received degrees in “Hockeyology” during the 2011-12 season by successfully completing classes at Hurricanes University. Hurricanes U combines education and
fantasy to teach fans about the game that they know and love, while providing a behind-the-scenes look at the team, accompanied by a few Hurricane VIPs.
The 101 sessions include classroom time that breaks down the basics of the game, from common plays to penalties, and answers any questions fans may have. Students also
get to meet a coach or player, tour the Canes locker room and training facilities and receiving basic skating instruction on the PNC Arena ice. The on-ice portion is taught by Hurricanes
staff, including Shane Willis, Tripp Tracy and Ron the Ref – and usually includes a surprise appearance by a current player.
A Graduate course is also available, targeted to fans who are well-versed in the game and want to know more about business of hockey – ranging from trades, free agency,
contracts, drafts and more. Members of Hurricanes management go in-depth with participants on the structure of the organization and how a team is formed from the foundation
up. All graduates of both Hurricanes U programs are recognized in a graduation on-ice before a home game.
CYAH – CANES YOUTH AND AMATEUR HOCKEY
In an effort to strengthen our involvement in the local youth and amateur hockey community, the Carolina Hurricanes created Canes Youth
and Amateur Hockey (CYAH) during the 2006-07 season. CYAH continues to provide sponsorship and presence to the local community in order
to grow youth hockey at all skill levels. The number of local youth hockey players has increased ten-fold in recent years and there is no end to the
growth in sight.
With the addition of former Hurricane Shane Willis to the CYAH staff, the program has steadily increased its initiatives and investments in
local youth hockey programs, including its local partner, the RYHA. CYAH utilizes hockey to build personal characteristics and foster teamwork and
dedication in young players. CYAH also promotes awareness and interest in youth and amateur programs throughout the state of North Carolina,
including hosting three major hockey clinics in-house each season. The Hurricanes’ involvement provides a positive influence with energy directed
towards fundraising, equipment donation and program improvements.
JUNIOR HURRICANES
Now entering its sixth season, the Junior Hurricanes program is coming off another successful campaign. The Junior Hurricanes program (RYHA) included teams at the
AAA, AA and A levels, as well as one of the largest and most competitive in-house programs in the country. In February 2011, the Junior Hurricanes 12U AA team won the Quebec
International Pee Wee Hockey Tournament. The Junior Hurricanes Tier II U16 and U18 AA teams each qualified for their respective USA Hockey Tier II National Tournament and
progressed to the semi-final games.
The Junior Hurricanes also include multiple all girls’ teams. In the 2010-11 season, the program was 50 participants strong, with new U10 and U14 teams. The Tier II U16
team won the S.E. District championship and earned its second consecutive appearance in the USA Hockey National Tournament.

COMMUNITY RELATIONS
STREET STORMERS
The Canes Street Stormers program is a joint partnership with the NHL Street initiative that provides street hockey equipment to recreational facilities. The street
Stormers program provides each facility with enough equipment for games and clinics of up to 30 players. Each facility receives hockey nets, full goalie equipment, sticks,
hockey pucks and balls.
IN-SCHOOL HOCKEY CLINICS
By the conclusion of its ninth year, the partnership of the Carolina Hurricanes and Wake County Public Schools created appearances at 49 locations for clinics, visiting
with 251 classes and teaching nearly 7,530 students the game of hockey. These programs combine hockey education and character traits, such as teamwork, leadership and
sportsmanship, with physical education classes. Students who attended the clinics were always excited for a new break in the day and the chance to learn a sport that they
perhaps never had the opportunity to try.
JUNIOR HURRICANES PEE WEE QUEBEC TOURNAMENT
Over 10 years, the Hurricanes have provided countless memories for more than 160 young men and women who have been a part of this one-of-a-kind tournament. The
tournament takes place in Quebec City over 12 days, during which participants are exposed to culture as well as competition, staying with French-speaking families and learning
about the French Canadian way of life. The Quebec Pee-Wee Tournament has produced an amazing number of future NHL hockey players. The list includes Hall of Fame players
Mark Messier, Mario Lemieux and Ron Francis, along with current Carolina Hurricanes Tim Gleason, Chad LaRose, Jeff Skinner and Jiri Tlusty.
In 2012, the Junior Hurricanes made their debut in the “AA” division. It resulted in a new challenge for the team, and a foundation was established for future growth at this
higher level. The Junior Hurricanes were moved up a division following the team’s historic play the previous year. The February 2011 tournament proved to be one of the most
exciting for the program, as the 11- and 12-year-old team won their bracket for the first time. The team posted a 6-0 record in the International-B tournament, outscoring their
opponents 32-6, and boasted eight of the top ten scorers in the division. The Junior Hurricanes earned major victories against competition from Salt Lake City, England, Canada,
Colorado, Anaheim and Switzerland.
RALEIGH YOUTH HOCKEY ASSOCIATION PARTNERSHIP
A new youth hockey partnership was formed on March 22, 2007, as Canes Youth and Amateur Hockey (CYAH) joined together with the Raleigh Youth Hockey Association
(RYHA). The partnership allowed the Hurricanes to lend their name, insight and marketing abilities to RYHA. RYHA also received a grant from the Kids ‘N Community Foundation
that allows for scholarships to be provided at all three levels of competition.
TRIANGLE SPECIAL HOCKEY ASSOCIATION
The Carolina Hurricanes are proud sponsors of the CAT5CANES, a local hockey program that helps bring the sport to physically and mentally disabled kids. Entering its fourth
season the CAT5CANES, founded by JV Cotterell, has grown from seven players in its first season to more than 60 for this upcoming year. Initially simply providing a place for the
kids to learn to skate and try the sport, the program took a team to a National Tournament in Maryland in April 2010. Coached by volunteer Kevin Lilley, the tournament provided
some amazing memories for these athletes. In addition to the local program, in 2010 the CAT5CANES helped start a similar program in Winston-Salem. Triangle Special Hockey
is also proud to offer a sled hockey program for mobility impaired players that is open to players of all ages and continues to attract more people each year. For more information
visit http://www.trianglespecialhockey.org/.
SPEAKER’S BUREAU
The Carolina Hurricanes receive numerous speaker requests each year from community groups and organizations, clubs, professional organizations and schools. In order to
fulfill as many requests as possible, the Speakers’ Bureau is available for requests. Potential speakers include television play-by-play announcer John Forslund, Hall of Fame radio
play-by-play announcer Chuck Kaiton, TV color analyst Tripp Tracy, Executive Vice President and General Manager of PNC Arena Davin Olsen and members of the Hurricanes Alumni
group. Members often visit a variety of local civic groups, professional organizations, youth groups, schools and universities. These speakers often highlight their own experiences
with the team, relating it to a specific speaking engagement topic.
“The Other Faces of the Hurricanes” is another branch of our Speaker’s Bureau. It is comprised of Carolina Hurricanes and PNC Arena employees who have volunteered to
visit local elementary schools and read books that teach life skills through the game of hockey. Not only does the appearance involve reading a book, but the speaker also talks to
the students about the importance of reading, education and setting and achieving goals.

• Paul Maurice is named head coach and Ron Francis is named associate head coach;
Peter Laviolette relieved of his head coaching duties – December 3, 2008.
• The Hurricanes score a 9-3 win at TB, marking the most goals in a game for the team
since relocating to North Carolina. Eric Staal scores four goals, marking the first time a
player had scored four goals in a game since relocation, and the third time the feat was
accomplished in franchise history. Staal’s six points set a Hurricanes record and tie the
franchise record for points in a game – March 7, 2009.
• Cam Ward earns his 39th win of the season in Carolina’s 9-0 rout of the NY Islanders.
For Ward, the win breaks Martin Gerber’s franchise record of 38 wins in a season. For the
Hurricanes, it marks their 45th win of the regular season - the second-best wins total in
franchise history – April 7, 2009.
• The Hurricanes’ franchise-record 12-game home winning streak is snapped. The 12game home winning streak shatters the previous record of nine games – April 9, 2009.
• “The Shock at the Rock” – Trailing 3-2 with 1:20 remaining in regulation, Jussi Jokinen
scores the tying goal in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals at New Jersey’s
Prudential Center. Eric Staal then beats Martin Brodeur with 32 seconds remaining, and the
Hurricanes advance to the second round – April 28, 2009.
• Scott Walker beats Tim Thomas 18:46 into overtime of Game 7 of the Eastern
Conference Semifinals at TD Banknorth Garden to give the Hurricanes a 3-2 win. Carolina
becomes just the fourth team to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals three times in
the first decade of the 2000s, joining NJ, PHI and PIT in that group.
