Trocheck was sidelined with a lower-body injury for the second half of the back-to-back in Columbus, and the Canes are "hopeful" to get Trocheck back in the lineup for Thursday. Trocheck skated on a line with Nino Niederreiter and Jordan Martinook in Wednesday's practice.
Necas has missed the last two games with an upper-body injury he sustained in Chicago on Feb. 4. Necas skated in a yellow, no-contact sweater in Wednesday's practice.
"Necas might be another day, but at least we're getting closer with both of those guys," Brind'Amour said.
A series of six straight on the road for the Canes ends with a two-game set in Dallas on Thursday and Saturday.
