Regular season

Along with the NHL 2000 patch worn league-wide, Carolina wore Two other patches, one that celebrated their first season at the New Raleigh Entertainment and Sports Arena, and the other in memory of Steve Chiasson, who died in a drunk driving crash after the Hurricanes were eliminated in the quarterfinals of the 1999 Stanley Cup Playoffs.
