Avalanche superstar forward Martin Necas has dropped a candid truth bomb, revealing exactly what he thinks about playing in Colorado and giving fans an inside look at his mindset heading into the upcoming NHL season.

Reports suggest that the Avalanche star has not been entirely satisfied with how his early days in Colorado have gone.

Martin Necas responds to speculation about his unhappiness in Colorado.

DNVR Avalanche recently asked Necas about the report this summer that hinted that he wasn't overly thrilled with his early stint in Colorado.
"I don't really know where that is coming from." -Necas
Trent Finnegan from Denver Sports recently reported that Necas is set to earn $6.5 million with the burgundy and blue this season, but his next deal is expected to soar into eight figures annually. That leaves GM Chris MacFarland with little choice but to lock down the 26-year-old on a long-term extension, because the last thing Colorado can afford is to see another star walk for nothing.
At Avalanche Media Day on Wednesday, Necas addressed where contract talks currently stand as the season approaches.
"We're talking, we'll see what's going to happen. Can't really tell you. I don't really know. So, it will be interesting." -Necas
The Avalanche now face a Mikko Rantanen-like dilemma with Necas, who averaged over a point per game last season and would draw massive offers on the open market if GM Chris MacFarland can't lock him up.
On Wednesday, Necas admitted that after the "shocking" trade eight months ago, he has finally found his footing in Colorado and is eager to put together a full season with the Avalanche.
"Being traded during the year wasn't easy, but, I felt like it was a good opportunity here and now, being here, starting with the camp and getting to know the guys way more is great, and I'm excited for the season." -Necas

With just one goal in seven playoff games, committing $10 million annually to Necas would be a steep price if he repeats that level of production when it matters most.
