RALEIGH, N.C. — If Martin Necas can demonstrate the same resolve on the ice that he’s taken in his mental approach to the most important season of his career, he’s going to be fine.
There’s no hiding from the way Necas played last season, nor is he trying. There’s not much at stake: Just his future with the Carolina Hurricanes and the trajectory of the rest of his career.
“Especially after last season, I tried to think before every practice, before every game, that I want to be better,” Necas said. “I know I can be better. I want to prove on the ice to everyone. Obviously, I’ve got to take the next step for this team and that’s what I’m trying to do.”
