The Carolina Hurricanes recently acquired unrestricted free agent superstar Mikko Rantanen from the Avalanche, and now updates regarding his future are here.

Meshing Rantanen and Hall into the structure of Carolina's system offers the possibility of the Hurricanes elevating their play.

Mikko Rantanen says he was willing to take a discount to stay with the Avalanche before the Hurricanes trade happened.

The Carolina Hurricanes just acquired Mikko Rantanen, but according to Keith Yandle, there's a chance they could look to move him again ahead of the trade deadline.

RALEIGH, NC (AP) — There was one thing Mikko Rantanen needed after he was traded to the Carolina Hurricanes: his number. Jack Roslovic had the No. 96 for Carolina before Rantanen was acquired in a blockbuster three-team trade last week that also involved the Chicago Blackhawks.

The Finnish winger, obtained in mega trade with the Colorado Avalanche, earned his first goal as a Hurricane, while fellow newcomer Taylor Hall was a late scratch with an illness.
