After participating in the 4 Nations, Rantanen is facing questions about his future and adjusting to his new surroundings.

Rantanen’s world has been upended. He joined the Hurricanes during a road trip. Carolina has played seven games since the trade, but Rantanen missed one with a minor injury. He does have an apartment now in Raleigh but hasn’t spent much time there.

Finland's Mikko Rantanen had a big game on Saturday. But rumors he may be traded again raise eyebrows, and the Hurricanes must pay big-time to hang onto him, writes Adam Proteau.
