Unexpected twist in the Martin Necas trade talks
Carolina Hurricanes' interim General Manager, Eric Tulsky faces an offseason task as he deals with free agents and rumours about Martin Necas wanting to leave.
Recently there have been trade rumours surrounding forward Martin Necas, with several teams expressing interest in the Czech player. While it was once widely believed that Necas would be traded during the offseason, the current situation suggests otherwise.
Insider Pierre LeBrun has provided updates that shed light on the evolving circumstances.
Pierre Lebrun gives us an update on Martin Necas, saying that Carolina intends to expand his role next year, but teams have been calling.
«But there is very little chance the Hurricanes, in win-now mode, are trading Necas for a futures package. If they get a star-caliber asset in an offer, I do believe Carolina would give it some serious thought. But if not, I think the Canes are ready to hang onto him � even if that might be a rocky course, considering it appears the player wants a change of scenery.»
During the playoffs, Necas excelled while playing on Carolina's third line alongside Jordan Martinook and Jack Drury, contributing 9 points in 11 playoff games. If the Hurricanes are confident in their ability to unleash Necas' full talent, he is expected to become one of their standout players in the future.
Stay tuned for more information.
