Mikko Rantanen tapped his heart as the video screen showed highlights of his Colorado Avalanche career, culminating with him hoisting the Stanley Cup.

Mikko Rantanen went out to dinner Saturday night with some of his old Colorado Avalanche teammates to catch up. He stepped onto the ice Sunday with them as his newest rivals. Being back at Ball Arena for the first time as a visitor was a surreal experience for Rantanen.

MacKinnon’s family, Makar, Devon Toews, Andrew Cogliano and Gabe Landeskog all took part in the ceremony. Rantanen did not … but he was on the ice. He was standing near the Stars bench and tapped his stick on a couple of times for his former linemate-turned-foe.
