Hurricanes Ink Two-Year Extension with WCMC/Raleigh

Carolina Hurricanes

The National Hockey League's Carolina Hurricanes ink a two-year extension with Capitol Broadcasting Company to keep WCMC (99.9 The Fan)/Raleigh-Durham as the flagship station of the Hurricanes Radio Network. The agreement continues the Hurricanes and The Fan's partnership through the 2021-22 NHL season. 99.9 The Fan will continue to carry a simulcast of FOX Sports Carolina's TV broadcast of Hurricanes games, while producing its pre- and post-game shows, "Storm Watch" and "Aftermath."

"Capitol Broadcasting has been a valuable partner for the Hurricanes for nearly 15 years, and we are pleased 99.9 The Fan will remain as the radio home for Hurricanes broadcasts," said President/General Manager Don Waddell.

"We are excited to continue our broadcasting and community partnership with the Carolina Hurricanes," said Capital Broadcasting VP/Radio Brian Maloney. "We look forward to another two years of great games on all our audio platforms."
