Playing career
College
Ranheim was born in
A 57-point season in 1986–87 earned Ranheim honors as he was named to the Western Collegiate Hockey Association (WCHA) Second All-Star Team and to the conference All-Academic Team.[8] He was also named to the preliminary roster of the American entry for the 1988 Winter Olympics.[9] However he failed to make the team, and after contemplating turning professional with the Flames, elected to return to Wisconsin for his senior season in 1987–88.[10] Ranheim shared the team's captaincy with Steve Tuttle,[11] and his 36 goals led the team.[2] He was named a National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) All-American and was placed on the WCHA's All-Tournament Team. Additionally, Ranheim was a finalist for the Hobey Baker Award (won by Robb Stauber[12]) as the top college player in the NCAA.[8] Ranheim graduated from Wisconsin having scored 177 points in 161 games, at the time the ninth best total in school history.[13]
Professional
Upon turning professional in 1988–89, Ranheim was assigned by the Flames to their International Hockey League (IHL) affiliate, the Salt Lake Golden Eagles.[1] He spent the majority of the season in Salt Lake, but appeared in five games for the Flames, including his NHL debut on December 29, 1988, against the Montreal Canadiens.[8] With the Golden Eagles, Ranheim's 68 goals led the league in scoring, set a franchise record, and was the fourth highest total in all of professional hockey.[2] He was named to the IHL Second All-Star Team and was voted the recipient of the Ken McKenzie Trophy as the U.S. born rookie of the year and the Gary F. Longman Memorial Trophy as overall rookie of the year.[1]
Joining the Flames full-time in 1989–90, Ranheim appeared in all 80 games and scored 26 goals and 54 points.[5] His first NHL goal, and points, came on October 5, 1989, when he scored and recorded two assists against goaltender Glen Hanlon of the Detroit Red Wings.[8] Ranheim was also involved in an NHL record-tying performance on October 17.

A 21-goal season followed in 1992–93,[1]; however, head coach Dave King began to convert Ranheim into a defensive forward.[19] Trying to defend against the opposition's top players, he lost confidence in his own offensive game.[20] Ranheim had only 24 points in 66 games when the Flames, struggling to win games and wanting to improve their defence, made a trade. He was sent, along with Gary Suter and Ted Drury, to the Hartford Whalers on March 10, 1994, in exchange for Michael Nylander, Zarley Zalapski and James Patrick.[21] Though he was expected to provide an offensive boost to the Whalers, Ranheim's lack of confidence continued to affect him, and he recorded only three assists in 15 games to end the season.[20]

Personal life
Ranheim has two daughters.[26] He originally settled in Arizona following his retirement.[26] Ranheim got into real estate and home building.[27] He left that industry when the economy faltered and embarked on several new ventures. He helped found a technology company called Keyware that creates internet monitoring software then tried marketing a brand of hockey jerseys. He ultimately moved to his hometown of Edina, Minnesota, where Ranheim took up coaching at a local high school and took up a career remodeling community rinks with the goal of starting a home remodeling company.[23]
