Name: Martin Necas
Age: 21
2020-21 Team: Carolina Hurricanes (NHL)
We’ve reached the point in the countdown where the top three should be pretty obvious. Today we talk about the next blooming star for the Hurricanes, Martin Necas.
When the Carolina Hurricanes drafted Necas No. 12 overall in 2017 there were hopes he could be a future number one center for the organization. At that time it was unknown if Sebastian Aho would play wing or center and the team needed depth down the middle. There was much promise to the young Czech center and the pick felt like a win immediately.
