SUNRISE, FL - JUNE 26: Mikko Rantanen poses after being selected tenth overall by the Colorado Avalanche in the first round of the 2015 NHL Draft at BB
The Colorado Avalanche selected Mikko Rantanen with their #10 draft selection in 2015, a selection that was so lucky for Colorado.
The Colorado Avalanche finished the 2014-15 season 39-31-12 and 90 points, which put them 11th in the Central Division and #21 in the NHL. That record earned them the #10 selection in the 2015 NHL Draft.
It was disappointing to get to draft so high. They chose mid-20s the previous season because of their strong record.
