For the past few days, the name Martin Necas has been a major topic of conversation across the NHL, and specifically with the Montreal Canadiens. Indeed, it is recalled that according to information reported by Pierre LeBrun on RDS last week, the general manager of the Habs, Kent Hughes, had already contacted Eric Tulsky to find out the price to pay to acquire the 25-year-old Czech. <q>«It is very possible that he [Martin Necas] will be traded this summer. That's what he wants, no need to hide it. His father confirmed it in the media in Czechia during the World Hockey Championship. According to my information, I have made calls across the league in the last few days, several teams have called the Hurricanes to inquire about his situation. Moreover, according to my information, the Canadiens are one of these teams.» - Pierre LeBrun</q> This is interesting! A huge quote just dropped from Frank Seravalli mentioning that Martin Necas could be dealt ahead of Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals. <q> Seravalli: I wouldn't be shocked to see Necas dealt before Game 1 on Saturday. </q> <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/taj1944/status/1797659208202203539'> </a></blockquote></div> Moreover, according to what was circulating around the NHL, Martin Necas' days in Carolina were numbered. Indeed, all the experts expected to say that he would be traded in the coming weeks, as he is not expected to sign a contract extension with the Hurricanes for the next season. However, an unexpected twist has just occurred through David Pagnotta. Indeed, according to the information shared in his latest article on the The Fourth Period website, the Canes' GM is asking interested teams to wait as he would like to agree on the terms of a new contract with his forward. <q>«There is a lot of interest in Necas; as I said on NHL Network Friday, at least a dozen teams have him on their radar. Some clubs have already contacted and been told to wait because Eric Tulsky and company want to first try to sign him. Calgary, Nashville, Seattle, Philadelphia, Montreal, and Vancouver are among the interested teams.» - David Pagnotta</q> Wow! We didn't see that coming! However, knowing that Martin Necas really wants a new opportunity elsewhere, it would be surprising if he agreed to stay in Carolina. It should be noted that, according to Pagnotta, the Montreal Canadiens are indeed among the teams interested in acquiring the 25-year-old forward. Selected 12th overall in the 2017 draft, Martin Necas has recorded 97 goals and 146 assists (243 points) in 362 games since joining the NHL. <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/TheFourthPeriod/status/1797631911801852360'> </a></blockquote></div>
