I'm not so sure about that. I've seen Kadri play plenty over the years and I've never seen him that 'down' for such an extended time. I think it comes back to having fun. Nobody on the team last year really seemed to be having any fun, save for a moment or two here and there. When you're not having fun playing or coming to the rink it's going to affect your play.
Not to let Kadri off the hook. It's on him to play through it, or figure it out to push through it. But I think with a new coach and new style (and hopefully more fun) he'll be a different player next year, same with a lot of his teammates. It's a lot easier to put in the effort when playing the game doesn't just seem like a chore.
