Although Friedman did make it clear that he wasn't sure if Necas Was involved in those talks, with Ullmark entering the last year of his contract next season, it's no surprise that the Bruins wanted to see if they could move him.
Ullmark, 30, played in 40 games for the Bruins this season, he compile the record of 22-10-7 including 2 shutouts, a 2.57 goals-against-average and a .915 save percentage.
We'll have to see if this goes any further this off-season, but it looks as though Ullmark and Necas might swap places
