No, I did not comment and you shouldn’t either!
I think it’s wild they think KK is worth assets at his cap. Zadina cleared waivers at 1.5 million and he’s similar (high draft pedigree, younger, not performing up to their draft position.)
But yeah, that’s where they value Necas. Forgot to erase names on my first post so I instantly deleted

Canes fans are delusional about their players’ value. It’s not super shocking, I see the same thing on this subreddit where people list bottom pairing defensemen as untouchables.
Necas probably is worth a pick in the ~10 range + a B prospect. Not sure what you think is so crazy here. He’s a 1st line forward in his prime.
I mean, other than KK value, these guys look like typical fan base? Some delusional and others more reasonable. Necas going for a Dach type haul seems appropriate?
Want aren’t they buying out KK? It’s a terrible contract that can be bought out for cheap
Purple user not delusional at least
He’s your burden now
KK could anchor a line alright.
I mean KK is def able to be a defensive center on a 3rd line ala Lars Eller
I’m not sure I’d pay 4.5 for that though
Also yeah Necas is worth a lot and they aren’t forced to trade him
Dach and Debrincat they did it because they wanted to tank for Bedard so not the best examples
The fact they are trying to convince themselves KK could become a good 35 points anchor 3rd liner is hilarious. Do you want KK on the ice versus the top lines on the road?
Someone in that sub the other week insisted the Habs were desperate to take KK back, and we could be persuaded to trade some awesome assets for him. I had to resist posting a screenshot in our sub for the lolz.
I feel these takes are super reasonable. Pretty good assessment of kk, if he becomes a third line checking center at his current cap.. That’s fine. The necas comparable isn’t wrong.
This sub is just as delusional
Carolinas in no mans land now.
uhh… the Necas assessment is fair though. They aren’t trading him cuz he sucks, but more because they don’t have the cap space.
A 10OA is most likely to become another Necas, maybe a bit better or worst.
What those Canes fans are forgetting is that Dach had five years of control vs one for Necas. That’s a significant mitigating factor. Dach was still an overpay though.
I don’t think he’s far off for Necas, but the one variable not mentioned is his potential new contract. If he truly is to be signed long term at north of 7.5M cap hit, it’s not really comparable to Dach.
