Very few of what would be considered contenders have the cap space for a Kadri contract and while yes you can go 10% over before the season starts you still need to move someone else out. Vegas for example could sign him even though they are currently over the cap due to LTIR but they still need 6 roster spots filled including a back up goalie, although it seems Lehner could be out for the start of the season but he would eventually come back.
