Marty Necas mock trades

Montreal is definitely interested in Necas, but not for the fifth overall pick!

My guess is if the trade is for Ullmark, Fabian Lysell and a 2nd round pick in 2026 will also be going to Carolina

Overpaid on all these trades besides the canucks.

I'm not a fan of Boston trading for Necas. I like the player's offensive potential, but its been made public that he really wants to play center, and I just don't see the fit for a team in Boston that really relies on their centers to play strong defense and win key faceoffs. If he had those qualities, then he would have filled that 2C role that Carolina has so desperately wanted to fill for the past few years.

The bigger issue is playing a prominent role on the powerplay and upper lines. Being on the same team with his two countryman probably helps to a degree as well. I’m a fan of a deal that brings him in to play the wing.

Carolina has had an interest in Ullmark who would be an upgrade over Freddie Andersen. Boston also has a talented winger prospect in Lysell who can play on the third line
