We have an abundance of 65pt RHS centers who can perform in the playoffs and are 25 years old?
News to me.
The guy is 1 season removed from 70pts where he played 2nd and 3rd line minutes.
He would instantly be our #1C and be a long term fit with our rebuild.

Not one of the above are close to a comparison for Necas… like none. How is he a project? He’s been an NHL center for 5+ years which is actually longer than any of the guys mentioned above.
He’d have more points than all of them, he’s a RHS center and established in the NHL and doesn’t disappear in the playoffs.
Honzek is years away from the NHL and a winger, Stromgen too. In fact everyone but Zary are wingers. Sharangovich struggled at center when we traded away Lindholm, he was basically a placeholder as we had nothing else.
He’s better today than everyone on that list and plays the premier posistion.
Guys like Kuzmenko and Sharangovich are trade targets at this point where as Necas would fit as our #1C long term.
If Lindstrom falls to 9 it’s because the rumours are true and his injuries are more severe than anticipated and teams are not wanting to take the risk with so many good prospects available. I’d hope Craig would do the same.
