It appears that Carolina is seeking a player in return for Martin Necas making the proposed deal quite plausible.
The suggested trade includes Martin Necas and Mike Matheson:
«To Carolina:
Mike Matheson, Winnipeg's 1st round pick, and Sean Farrell
To Montreal:
Martin Necas»
What are your thoughts on this proposal?
Around 3000 fans participated in a survey regarding this trade offer. 56% of respondents support the deal while 44% oppose trading Matheson, Farrell and the 26th overall pick for Necas.
How do you feel about it?
In my opinion exchanging Matheson for Necas directly should be more than adequate for the Hurricanes. We're talking about a defenseman who scored 62 points while only earning 4.8 million dollars annually.
