Rantanen

Is it just me, or should we be all-in on signing him come FA time?

From The Athletic article yesterday about the trade:

"He’s got the fifth-most points among all NHL players in that span — more than Artemi Panarin, David Pastrnak, Mitch Marner, Matthew Tkachuk, Auston Matthews and a whole slew of other perennial All-Stars."

He's got everything we desperately need on this team. Grit, drive, work ethic, net-front presence, leadership, and more. Add on all the playoff experience, Stanley Cup ring, and what lessons he's learned from playing alongside MacK and Landy.

I feel like this is a no brainer and we should throw $13-14M a season at him. I don't care. Overpay the man and get him here.
