The Bruins seem to have their eyes on trading for Hurricanes Martin Necas but an insider has just confirmed the asking price which does not look good.
According to insider David Pagnotta, the Hurricanes are looking to a a solid player in return and not only future assets such as prospects or picks.
As the Hurricanes carry out trade talks with teams about Martin Necas, the word is Carolina is looking to complete a 'hockey trade' not a deal strictly for future assets. Teams like Nashville, Seattle, Montreal among those still believed to be in the mix.
This deal would make sense if Linus Ullmark is part of it but if the Bruins end up trading Ullmark to Ottawa, they will likely have to move a solid player to get Necas in return which may cause some problems in a deal going through.
Necas had a solid season with the Hurricanes putting up 53 points in 77 games.
