The Edmonton Oilers and Florida Panthers will square off in the 2024 Stanley Cup Final in a few days, but other NHL clubs have more important and intimate matters to attend to. The Carolina Hurricanes are one of them, and an insider thinks a big move might occur before game one starts.
According to Frank Seravalli's most recent Rundown on Daily Faceoff, the Hurricanes are eager to deal forward Martin Necas, 25, to another team.
As a restricted free agent, Necas is expected to receive a rise from the $3 million annual salary he has been receiving for the last three seasons. Nonetheless, it appears like Carolina intends to sign free agents Seth Jarvis and Jake Guentzel, which will leave little to no space for Necas's pay.
