Fill that 2C hole allowing Backlund and Lindholm some rest and better matchups.
What I didn't expect was a complete ghost on the ice his points are fine but he was supposed to bring some swagger, grit some hate and be hard to play against by being agitating and play with heart. He did this previously its been missing the entire season.
Maybe I didn't watch close enough but I also did not expect one of the worst puck hogs I have ever seen and someone with the worst vision on the team and utilizing his teammates. Its pretty bad and his play is holding back the 4 other players on the ice.
Have you ever seen a teammate literally steal the puck off the stick of someone winding up and go for a skate like an idiot and turn it over at the blueline?
I always had that swagger or cocky demeanor to him but maybe the cup went to his head and he thinks he is the whole show, but its is hurting the team.

Team worst -11 as well. Tied with, you guessed it, Milan Lucic.
Not a great year from Kadri on the little parts of the game, but hey, he put up some points, so let's forget about all that.
