Overview
- Colorado confirmed an eight-year deal for Necas worth $92 million with an $11.5 million cap hit.
- The extension begins in 2026–27 and runs through 2033–34, removing Necas from next summer’s UFA class.
- Reporting indicates roughly $60 million in signing bonuses and a full no‑move clause for seven of the eight years.
- Necas has produced seven goals and 13 points in 11 games this season and is logging a career‑high average ice time.
- Acquired in the Rantanen trade sequence, Necas has become Colorado’s de facto No. 2 forward, and the cap hit slots below Nathan MacKinnon’s as the Avs eye future commitments such as Cale Makar.
