For a trade to happen, three elements must come together.
First, the Canadiens and the Hurricanes must agree on the price to finalize the trade.
Second, Kent Hughes must reach an agreement with Necas' camp for a contract extension.
Third, it must work financially.
According to information circulating in the past few hours, Martin Necas is expected to sign a 6- or 7-year contract with an annual value of $7 to $7.5 million. He will be a restricted free agent this summer.
At that price, would you do it?
Necas, 6 feet 2 inches, who can play as a center or a winger, is a 2017 first-round pick.
He scored 53 points in 77 games this season (9 points in 11 playoff games) and scored 71 points last season.
