[Meghan Angley] Avs prospect, forward Sampo Ranta has signed a two-year contract with MoDo hockey in Sweden.
The 22-year old just finished the third year of his ELC. He had 22 points in 58 games with the Eagles this season. His sophomore season was interrupted by a foot injury. He was described by Cronin as a puzzle with all the right pieces (his obvious physical tools, power & speed.) https://t.co/DwXWxtpjv7

Hope he tears it up. Was never impressed by him but hoped he could fill in the bottom 6 one day
Brief article from Rawal. Avs can still give him a qualifying offer and keep his rights https://coloradohockeynow.com/2023/05/25/avalanche-offseason-sampo-ranta-signs-in-sweden/?s=09
RIP Rambo Santa
Not too shocking, he skates well and works hard but just never showed enough to stick. I’m guessing we’ll QO him, in case he grows his game overseas, but I doubt he’ll be back. Best of luck to him!
Growing up playing NHL on PlayStation and Xbox, for some reason MoDo was my fucking jam lol. Them and CSKA. Just stuck with me for some reason and love them till this day
Damn man, I was really hoping this kid would shine with us
Long live Rambo Santa!
