Not a fan of Kadri at all. If/when they trade Brodie, the player returning needs to address at least 1 of the 3:
1) Speed
2) Lethal Shot
3) Drives play (zone entry/dictates pace)
Kadri doesn't address any of those in my opinion. Living in Toronto I see a lot of Kadri, I think his numbers are inflated playing on that #1 pp unit with the likes of Marner, Mathews and Reilly.
Maybe Brodie isn't valuable enough to acquire any of those needs but I'd be interested in seeing if somehow Hoffman can be acquired for Brodie. The PP sorely needs a shooting threat. It'll open up space for others.
