Mikko Rantanen‘s stint with the Carolina Hurricanes got off to a rocky start. His arrival was heralded as a move that could bring success in the 2024-25 NHL season, but his fit with coach Rod Brind’Amour’s team has not been as desired at a time of contract negotiations.
With his contract set to expire at the end of the NHL season, Carolina may already be considering moving on from Rantanen despite acquiring him just a few weeks ago. With that in mind, the 28-year-old player is ready to make a decision about his future.
It was only a few days ago that Rantanen was traded to the Carolina Hurricanes on January 24. The trade was a three-team deal involving the Colorado Avalanche and Chicago Blackhawks. Now add negotiations over his costly contract extension. Uncertainty hangs over Raleigh regarding the Finnish forward’s continuity.
What decision will Rantanen make?
According to TSN’s Insider Trading, Rantanen and his entourage are expected to update the Hurricanes on the status of contract negotiations in the coming days. Although several teams have expressed interest in a trade, Carolina has yet to receive or entertain any offers.

The trade deadline is only a few days away, but Carolina is getting close to making a decision on Rantanen’s future. It all depends on the extension. If there is no deal, the Canes will most likely have the Finnish forward for only four months.
Rumors about Rantanen’s future
There have been several rumors of interest in Rantanen in recent hours. Although several teams are keeping an eye on the Carolina star’s situation, there have been no concrete negotiations. The Vegas Golden Knights, Dallas Stars and Toronto Maple Leafs are some of the organizations that have been reportedly interested in Rantanen, although there is nothing concrete.
