Boston Bruins top trade target was just traded in a massive three-team blockbuster trade late at night.
A report just confirmed that Boston Bruins top trade target was just traded in a three-way trade.
The Colorado Avalanche have reportedly traded
Mikko Rantanen to the Carolina Hurricanes, it's unclear what the return is but it has also been reported that Chicago Blackhawks
Taylor Hall is involved in the trade some how.
Elliotte Friedman revealed that Taylor Hall is going to the Carolina Hurricanes as well, making this a three-team trade.
Multiple insiders confirmed that the Colorado Avalanche have traded superstar Mikko Rantanen to the Carolina Hurricanes apart of this blockbuster trade.
With Mikko Rantanen being involved in this trade, it makes it one of the biggest trades to take place recently. It's hard to remember a recent trade that was as big as this one.
Rantanen is an elite goal scorer, with a Stanley Cup Championship, brings veteran experience, and will help the Hurricanes greatly in the playoffs.
Earlier in the year, there were reports that the Boston Bruins were a top landing spot if a trade were to take place involving Mikko Rantanen, or if he didn't re-sign in the off-season, the Bruins were rumoured to be the favourites to land Rantanen.
More details, including the full structure of the three-way trade, are expected soon. Stay tuned for updates as this blockbuster unfolds.
