Weird how twitter randoms are going crazy about kadri to calgary. Doesn't make a lot of sense to me unless backlund is immediately traded but even then cap cost would be pretty limiting as am thinking he would be 2.5-4 mil a season more than backlund.
I'd rather see them sign mangiapane long term and flip kylington and a piece for a young right shot forward to play with lindholm and huberdeau, maybe someone struggling to find a deal with his tean who will sign for 3-5 years and explode on that line.
Someone I think fits the bill perfectly is Necas in Carolina but the canes will probably be pretty wary of dealing him to cgy after lindholm and it sounds like they are in win now mode so probably not a great trade fit.
