I would definitely do that trade for sure. I think he would be a perfect fit for Rod

It’ll be interesting to see if he’ll be moved. I know there’s been talks on and off about him getting moved.

Have to think we’d be interested if he’s available considering we were interested in his brother.

Hearing we might be able to get Nikishin over before the draft.

This right here would be a game changer. Not going to get my hopes up...but would be awesome!

If Nikishin comes over it gives the Canes the dynamic puck moving d man who we've been missing... huge if he can come this year.....

Hoping that Nikishin is the next Sergei Zubov.

Just a note here Waddell does NOT SOUND LIKE HES WILLING TO TRADE NECAS FOR "WHATEVER WE CAN GET"

[PantherChris]

I've seen some spitballing on a Necas trade and the best I've seen proposed by the talking heads would be Travis Konecty for Martin Necas strait swap... 

 

I'd love it

Right now from what I’ve seen and heard, the canes are asking for draft picks and players on entry level contract for Necas.

There’s zero chance Freddie is not here next year.

You can’t find a goalie less than $4M on the market and Fred’s buyout would still carry a cap hit of over $1M.

I get fans want to just up and get rid of players but that’s not how the NHL works.

Great, another year Rod starts Freddie in net over Kooch on our way to another playoff exit.

Link? Because I haven't seen anything about what the Canes have actually been asking no opinion pieces...

This makes the most sense. The Canes need to cut salary in a Necas trade, not add it.

Adding a Brady Tkachuk or a Travis Konecny would be nice but we are eventually going to run into cap issues if we don’t start getting contributions from guys on ELC’s.

Florida takes game 1 with excellent goal tending and zone defense.  Something we don’t do in the playoffs. Kinda a blueprint their rod.  Not a shot btw…just an observation.  

[Chief_Chokeaho]

Ehh NYR had more scoring opportunities and Florida is healthy with an elite net minder. Only fault I have on Rod is his goalie decision. At some point, the players deserve some balme.
