This is major.
Indeed, it was believed that the Hurricanes would want draft picks or prospects because they don't have cap space.
The Canadiens could then make multiple proposals, but that is not the case. The Canes want established players.
We can therefore think that players like Kirby Dach, Alex Newhook, and Logan Mailloux would be on their radar. Besides Newhook, I don't see such a proposal happening.
This definitely reduces the chances of seeing the forward in Montreal. Kent Hughes has few low-salary players who are interesting to other teams, and he certainly wants to keep them.
It will be interesting to see what happens next, but if LeBrun is right, I think we can definitely forget about Martin Necas coming to Montreal.
