Gotta make it a 1st for us to consider. Don’t see why MTL would want Kakko anyway with Mesar coming up with in 1-2 years.

Necas isn’t worth 4 first round pick, jesus lord have i miss something. There absolutely no team that will pay close to that.

Overpay for Necas, but the young players aren't particularly interesting to the Canes and mid-late firsts really aren't what they would want as a return.
