NHL Shockwaves: Martin Necas, Patrik Laine, and Evgeny Kuznetsov Linked to Surprising Trade Frenzy
Will Martin Necas price himself out of Colorado, and is Patrik Laine playing himself out of Montreal?
Michael Amato of Sportsnet: Martin Necas put up a career-high 83 points last season, and could top 90 this season playing alongside Nathan MacKinnon. With the rising cap and recent comparables, Necas will be looking for over $10 million a season. He may not be far off from Mikko Rantanen’s $12 million. Will Necas price himself out of Colorado like Rantanen did?
Necas likely won’t get more than MacKinnon’s $12.6 million, but a Cale Makar extension will be more. Makar is eligible for an extension this offseason, and he could be Kirill Kaprizov range. Going $10-$11 million for Necas could make things tight.
