<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caniac2000</b></div><div>Canes wouldn't consider Harris and Winnipeg's 1st. Truthfully, Harris isn't of much interest, neither is Dvorak. The ONLY thing here interesting for Carolina is the pick. Personally, I'd still rather use Necas (whose 25, not 26) to get a major upgrade up fromt. He's had 3 different 60+ point pace seasons (this year, the 56 game season, and the 71 points he had last year) and he's doing that in a system where individual offensive talent goes to die. To put that into perspective, while not getting top line minutes because of his defensive game and playing out of position as a natural center in a system where he's forced to play a game he doesn't want to, he's STILL outproducing Caufield.</div></div>

Ok, well...still don't think he's worth 6th overall.
Personally I wouldn't even trade 6th overall for Zegras.
Consider also there's an element here that Carolina can't afford to re-sign everyone this year and next, there's pressure on them to move someone.
And of course, add the element of the sour OS business and the Canes owner taking things so personally, I don't think Habs are the team the Canes need to be dancing with in this situation

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ujeje</b></div><div>Canes would need something to help them win now in return, not something that may help in 3-5 years (late first). And I don't think they like Harris that much. If it's just picks/prospects, then it should be big overpay, so they can flip the return.

And while stats may not seem to be shiny, his NHL ppg is 0,68, with 16.37 TOI and 2.07 TOIPP. Canes are defense first team, and every forward is required to do their duty, not steal for offense. Even their superstar Aho has been having hard time to break ppg line.

But you either have to include player like Newhook with WPG 1st &amp; Harris (don't know if that'd be enough), or make your 6th ovr pick the mainpiece of the trade.

This is just coming from a simple Flyers fan, not on favoring either team.</div></div>

Ok, but in that case forget it. Mtl wouldn't give Newhook + + for a guy who is basically 3 years ahead of him.
Canes aren't going to get such a big return for Necas. Definitely not 3 pieces. I'd be surprised if they got 2.
