Does Rantanen make the Hurricanes Stanley Cup favorites?
About this episode
Max, Laz, and The Athletic’s own Peter Baugh discuss the continued fallout from Friday night’s blockbuster Avs-Canes trade including how Mikko Rantanen’s Denver departure will define Avalanche GM Chris MacFarland’s tenure there, if No. 96’s arrival in Raleigh has transformed the Hurricanes into Stanley Cup frontrunners, which teams will vie for Rantanen’s services if he reaches free agency this summer, and much more. Plus, the guys talk about the recent Rangers resurgence and whether they should be buyers or sellers at the NHL trade deadline.
