Martin Nečas

Nečas made his professional debut with Kometa Brno in 2016, and played a prominent role on the team as they won the Czech Extraliga championship.[10] Initially it was expected that Nečas would not join the Hurricanes immediately, and instead was expected to either return to the Czech Republic, or play for the Hurricanes' American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, the Charlotte Checkers, or the Saginaw Spirit of the Ontario Hockey League (OHL), who selected him in the CHL Import Draft in 2017.[12] Though named to the roster, Nečas was a healthy scratch and only practiced with the team, and his NHL debut came 17 October 2017, in a 5–3 win over the Edmonton Oilers.[15] Nečas had 17 points in 24 games, leading junior-aged players in scoring, and helped Brno win the Czech Extraliga championship for a second year in a row.On 16 October 2018, he recorded his first NHL goal on a pass from fellow rookie Warren Foegele in a 4–2 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning.[29] Nečas led the 2018 World Junior Championships with eight assists and tied for the scoring lead (with Casey Mittelstadt of the United States) with 11 points, helping the team to a fourth-place finish.
