I'm not saying that Kadri doesn't have flaws, but those things can be worked on. Jarome Iginla used to drive Brian Sutter crazy when he was a young player before he matured.
The fact Kadri seems to be falling out adheres to the "buy low" philosophy that we should be trying to follow.
As a side note, and file this under Orange Julius if you want, but Carlyle has a bit of a reputation for being jerk even away from the rink (I know someone in the service industry who works somewhere where Carlyle frequents and apparently he is a rude customer and never tips). I know the default position when a player and coach clash is to assume the coach is right, but occasionally the coach really is just a prick. Just something to consider. (I am not saying that he isn't an effective coach though).
