Michael Matheson's days in Montreal could be numbered, and the return could be quite substantial.

Indeed, there are many rumors swirling that the defenseman could be traded for none other than Martin Necas.

Respected insiders like Pierre LeBrun confirm that Kent Hughes and the Canadiens are in the mix, but other teams are also interested, such as the Boston Bruins, Winnipeg Jets, Chicago Blackhawks, and Calgary Flames.

Despite salary cap constraints, the Hurricanes are not interested in prospects. They want one or more players equivalent to Necas, with a good contract.

The Canadiens have a potential fit with Matheson, who has an excellent contract, and the Hurricanes will lose defensemen to free agency. However, according to Alain Crête from RDS, it will cost more than just Matheson.

"According to Alain Crête, it will take more than just Mike Matheson to acquire the services of Martin Necas via trade."

We all agree with these sentiments, even though Matheson had an excellent season with 62 points, which is 9 more than Necas this season.

With the 26th overall pick, personally, I believe we would be very close to a good agreement between the two teams.

If this were to happen, it would be curtains for Michael Matheson, and Kent Hughes will have given more.
