A major new development is unfolding in the potential trade of Martin Necas.
Not only does the trade seem imminent, but it could even be finalized this week.
Frank Seravalli, a reputable journalist, has suggested this possibility, highlighting the seriousness of the situation. Kent Hughes, the general manager of the Canadiens, is reportedly very active in this matter, having already contacted the general manager of the Hurricanes.
Marc-Olivier Beaudoin confirmed that the Canadiens are highly interested in Necas and that this week could bring decisive developments. Taj mentioned that the trade could occur before the first game of the Stanley Cup Final.
Darren Dreger also added that Necas is exactly the type of player Kent Hughes wants to add to the Canadiens' offense. This new dynamic is reminiscent of Hughes' acquisition of Alex Newhook just before the 2023 draft.
