Necas isn't going anywhere until the TDL. At $6.5M, teams needing a scoring forward will be taking a look, depending on what kind of season he's having. 

The Canes hold all the cards right now. 

Why would the Canes want to trade Necas and for what?

He's the best skater on the team and moves the puck up court better than most on the team imho. He had 9 points in 11 playoff games this past season. I’m hoping he stays and gets back to 22-23 season form when he had 71 points.

Agreed.  Nece ain’t going anywhere.  ESP if we are in the playoff hunt. Even more esp if he is playing well.

Because Necas only signed a two year deal and if we aren’t contending for a championship then what good does he do us when he can walk for nothing in a year. The only reason we kept Skjei, Pesce, etc. last year was because we were going for it.

If we aren’t a top five team in the league at the TDL then he’ll be traded. He’ll fetch a good amount because he has one year remaining on his contract.

If the Canes wanted to keep him and he wanted to stay, the deal would have been for 6-7 years.

Remember, he filed for arbitration, not the team. And the max he would have gotten at arbitration was 2 years. Again, the Canes hold all the cards and Necas is now in a position to perform if he wants to get paid big time forward money with his next contract.

I don't think the team is as far from contending again as you might think, we had an absurdity of riches last season.... a 2C being the biggest weakness I think filling it at the TDL would go a long way....

 

As for loosing Skjei and Pesce let's be honest Orlov and Chatfield are a legit #2 pairing, and we added two 10 goal scorers to our 3rd pairing.... we need more F scoring... the rest of the team is still rock solid IMO.

This. And also, Jarvis is going to get better. That alone is the big one. Plus Koochie finally getting the reigns as 1, could be similar to 19 and we get hot then no telling what could happen. 
 

btw heard this on the radio, since 2009, we are 0-12 in eastern conference finals games. That’s almost statistically impossible but it’s also something the canes would do hahaha.

Ok I understand the logic there. As I said I’m on the side of hoping he performs well and the team is still a contender.

I think they are still on board with keeping Necas, this contract is show me what you got and then we will sign you long term, fences will be mended if he performs well.

Oh, no doubt this is still a possibility. His defense improved a lot last season (of course, anything would have been considered an improvement), and he's about the most trusted guy on PP1 to carry the puck into the zone. Not to mention his proclivity for OT goals and his flat out speed in the transition game.

      Bryce stats past the sticks

      That's a very incorrect statement right off the bat, coaches get fired for winning ugly all the time.  Every coach of a playoff team that then gets fired, got fired because they won ugly and didn't improve their players enough to win in the postseason. Guys like Andy Reid have been fired for "winning ugly" like you said, because they kept winning in spite of the improvement of their players. Also, "this is a fanbase starved for wins" is a statement I also don't agree with, I'm not "starved for wins", I'm "starved for a winning and contending franchise" which are two VERY different things. If the team and fans just want to win some games, then that's a loser mentality, sorry, but it is.  We should want to contend, not win a handful of games.  Every time this comes up I point back to the Lions the last 5 years or so.  They were losing games but improving every week while doing so a few years back.  THAT is how you improve as a franchise and move the needle towards contending, not winning games ugly.

      this is true.  But NFL Ss and defenses are actively taking that away and playing to take them away vs most teams.  The problem thus far in BY's career......is they are cheating and not respecting the deep game which makes the smaller/mid range game harder to pull off.  and Dallas is an anomaly game.  using those random games that run counter to vast work......doesn't really change the discussion/issues in Carolina.  Bryce Young took the shots this week because they were not just NFL open but college open.    Wide open dudes downfield that really were coverage busts/issues.
