Ross | R000305 | ross.house.gov | ross | https://ross.house.gov/press-releases | scraper | Washington, D.C. — Today, Congresswoman Deborah Ross (NC-02) introduced a House resolution congratulating the Carolina Hurricanes on winning the 2026 Stanley Cup Championship, the franchise's first Stanley Cup title in 20 years, and recognizing the team's extraordinary impact on North Carolina both on and off the ice. She was joined by Representatives Valerie Foushee (NC-04), Addison McDowell (NC-06), Alma Adams (NC-12), Pat Harrigan (NC-10), Don Davis (NC-01), Greg Murphy (NC-03), Tim Moore (NC-14), David Rouzer (NC-07), Mark Harris (NC-08), and Virginia Foxx (NC-05) as original co-sponsors. "The Carolina Hurricanes didn't just bring the Stanley Cup back to Raleigh. They brought our entire state together," said Congresswoman Ross. "From inspiring the next generation of hockey players to supporting veterans, raising millions for charitable causes, and standing with Western North Carolina communities after Hurricane Helene, this organization has shown what it means to lead with courage and compassion. This resolution celebrates an unforgettable championship season and recognizes the lasting impact the Hurricanes have had on our state. Congratulations to every player, coach, staff member, and Caniac who helped make history." The Hurricanes defeated the Las Vegas Golden Knights in six games to capture the Stanley Cup after an impressive postseason that included sweeping both the Ottawa Senators and Philadelphia Flyers before defeating the Montreal Canadiens to win the Eastern Conference. Beyond the championship, the resolution highlights the Hurricanes' positive impact across North Carolina, including their support for youth hockey programs, veterans and wounded warriors, disaster relief efforts following Hurricane Helene, and the significant economic boost generated for Wake County during the Stanley Cup Final. It also formally recognizes Raleigh as a hockey town and North Carolina as a hockey state, affirming that hockey belongs in the South. Text of the resolution is available here. ### | 1 | 2026-07-02T06:20:02Z | 2026-07-02T06:21:32Z |
