Thanks, worth understanding this summer potentially. I think they’ll find a trade they like but if they end up in a contract dance he could go the arbitration route. He could do two one year deals in a row if the Canes chose one year, correct? I feel like Tkachuk threatened something similar to get out of Calgary at around the same age.When the player elects for salary arbitration, the team gets to choose the term. And when team elects for salary arbitration, the player gets to choose the term. The exception is when there's only one year to UFA, then no one can elect for 2 years arbitration.
5 per when he’s proven to be anywhere from a 50-70 pt scorer? Arbitrators have been shown over the years to not really care about defensive flaws. They pay for points and Necas has scored. I wouldn’t assume he would only get 5.Honestly Necas would have to wrestle with getting 2 years at 5 million per in a system he doesn’t like and potentially losing money in the 2nd year vs taking the 1 year. Walking Necas to UFA isn’t ideal but I would take that gamble.
