Rantanen was traded from the Avalanche to the Hurricanes on Jan. 24, then moved to Dallas in a subsequent deal, marking a dizzying double-trade season.
Dallas acquired Rantanen in an eight-year, $96 million contract with a full no-movement clause after the double-trade chaos.
Rantanen says the chaos helped him learn to focus on hockey and settle into Dallas, where he found a comfortable fit with teammates.
He formed on-ice chemistry with Wyatt Johnston and Jason Robertson on Dallas' top line and power play.
Rantanen’s playoff performance with Dallas helped the Stars reach the conference finals, tallying 22 points in 18 playoff games.
After the first trade, the Hurricanes attempted to extend him, but the move to Dallas became permanent.
Rantanen embraced leadership and a strong locker-room presence praised by teammate Tyler Seguin and others.
Dallas GM Jim Nill described Rantanen as a 'superstar human being' and emphasized his long-term value to the franchise.
