Colorado parted with Rantanen in a three-team deal, shipping him off to Carolina while acquiring forwards Martin Necas and Jack Drury, as well as a second-round pick in this year’s draft and a fourth-rounder in 2026.
Colorado Avalanche GM Chris MacFarland says trading Mikko Rantanen to the Carolina Hurricanes was a "tough business decision,' calling the star winger a "superstar human being."
After the shocking blockbuster deal that shipped Mikko Rantanen out of Colorado, he broke silence on his view.
Speaking to The Athletic’s Peter Baugh on Monday, Rantanen shared his thoughts on the trade, his contract talks with the Avalanche and his new chapter in Carolina. Most interestingly, Rantanen confirmed that he was "ready to take a significant discount" to stay in Colorado, as initially reported by Pierre LeBrun of The Athletic.
Rantanen, who has accumulated 92, 105 and 104 points in his past three seasons with the Avs, is on pace for his finest Finnish finale of 111. The Hurricanes are euphoric over the acquisition and believe they can capture the chalice for the first (and only) season since 2006. The Avalanche are destined to not win their fourth NHL championship.
