Hurricanes President Doug Wharf Resigns

The Carolina Hurricanes announced today that team president Doug Wharf has resigned after a little over one year in his position. Wharf, who oversaw all business operations for the Hurricanes and their arena, Lenovo Center, was officially announced as the team’s president in July of last year. Wharf re-joined the Hurricanes in that post after previously working for the team from 2000-2017, according to the team’s press release. Regarding the news, The Fourth Period’s David Pagnotta reported that Wharf’s resignation can be traced to “a difference in alignment” between himself and team owner Tom Dundon.
