Kadri had a bad second half in Calgary and was solid at the beginning of the year. Horvat was on fire to start but also was in a contract year and he cooled off big time in New York.

4 years younger, 2 years longer term and $1.5M more AAV. I think the deal only makes sense if Lou still wants Kadri like he did last summer. Only Lou would be the type of guy to forget about 4 year age gap.
