The restricted free agent Martin Necas finally signed a contract following months of rumours and speculation about his future in the National Hockey League.

An official statement from the Carolina Hurricanes confirmed that general manager Eric Tulsky secured Necas' services for the next two seasons.

Read the full details here:

"RALEIGH, N.C. � Eric Tulsky, General Manager of the National Hockey League's Carolina Hurricanes, today announced that the team has agreed to terms with forward Martin Necas on a two-year, $13 million contract extension. Necas will receive an average-annual value (AAV) of $6.5 million through 2025-26.

«Martin is an immensely skilled player who provides a scoring threat whenever the puck is on his stick,» said Tulsky. «He will play a key role in the continued success of our franchise, and we're excited to have a multi-year contract done.»"

Many fans and hockey experts believed Necas would sign with another organization. Tulsky showed why he got the GM job by getting Necas at a reasonable salary for two more seasons.

In 2023-24, Necas tallied 24 goals and 29 assists points in 77 games. He will try to bounce back next year as the Canes look to reach the Stanley Cup Finals.
