Recent NHL rumors surround Martin Necas, Patrik Laine, and Evgeny Kuznetsov. Michael Amato of Sportsnet notes that Martin Necas had a career-high 83 points last season and could exceed 90 points this season playing with Nathan MacKinnon.
Necas may seek over $10 million per season due to the rising cap and recent comparables, potentially nearing Mikko Rantanen's $12 million. This could price him out of Colorado, similar to Rantanen's situation.
Patrik Laine appears to be falling out of favor with head coach Martin St. Louis, potentially playing himself out of Montreal.
Evgeny Kuznetsov had NHL offers.
