Has not played for San Antonio since the WJC. He apparently is nursing an upper body injury. Would not be surprised he was playing hurt in the Tourney.

Or some kind of accident happened when they celebrated the victory.
That would make sense when Rantanen unperformed playing with Hintz and Kapanen.
You all got it wrong!
I have insider knowledge that after finally fulfilling his childhood dream of taking home the U20 gold he has decided it is best to retire and make a killing getting that AHL money for 2 more years and use it to build a house somewhere in the middle of nowhere in Lapland and live the rest of his life as a loner chopping wood and hunting reindeer while looking like DiCaprio in The Revenant.
He practiced yesterday in full, so probably tonight.It is prohibited to hunt reindeer, they are herded animals
On to the topic: any idea when Rantanen will be playing again?

Really? You are giving a Finn a lecture on reindeer and give that shaky head based on my so clearly serious post.
2-1 Rantanen (Zadorov) PP
3-1 Rantanen
4-1 Rantanen (Everberg, Cliche)
That third goal was just something else.
Rantanen 3+0
Laine 3+0
Saarela 1+1
Puljujärvi 1+1
Kapanen 1+1
Aho 0+1
Not a bad Saturday for the Finns.
Yeah and I forgot Nättinen 0+2 and Lammikko 0+2. But who cares, those 6 play in a mens league.This is why Finland won the WJC's. No team could match that group of forwards, with those six doing most of the scoring.
Canada and USA probably had as many high draft picks forwards competing at the WJC's, but the production in the WJC's of those players and now the production with their hockey clubs is as good any of those countries.
