## Resource

The Carolina Hurricanes’ controversial decision to engrave owner Tom Dundon’s family names atop the Stanley Cup has ignited a firestorm across hockey fandom. Longtime loyalists and respected journalists are furious, pointing out glaring omissions like Bobby Gorman — the equipment manager since 1976 — and rookie Joel Nystrom, who missed the 39-game threshold by one game. Critics argue the Cup should honor those who sacrificed on the ice, not those who merely funded the team. The backlash is swift and loud, turning what should be a celebration into a PR nightmare for the Hurricanes — and fans aren’t letting go anytime soon.
