In recent weeks the Carolina Hurricanes have used a rotation system to allow for Jordan Staal‘s return to the team, forcing a combination of Warren Foegele, Greg McKegg and Saku Maenalanen out of the line-up. Maenalanen is probably the odd-man out – but the case could be made for Don Waddell and Rod Brind’Amour to consider bringing Czech scoring sensation Martin Necas back to Raleigh for the stretch.
Fans of the Carolina Hurricanes will remember that Necas began the 2018/19 season with the Canes, featuring progressively less and less as the team began the season with a 4-2-1 record.
