Necas scored a power-play goal on two shots and added an assist in Saturday's 6-4 loss to the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
While the Hurricanes' winning streak ended at eight games, Necas was able to extend his point streak to nine contests, seven of which have been multi-point efforts. The 25-year-old is tied for fourth in points with Nikita Kucherov and Sam Reinhart. Necas has eight goals, 15 helpers, 29 shots on net and a plus-9 rating over 13 appearances. He's been a big part of the Hurricanes' offense for the last two years, but this has the makings of a breakout campaign for the forward, who has just one 70-point season over his first five full years in the NHL.
