I would want to give him a year where he had a long offseason to recover and train and with a new coach before judging the contract.
A Kadri that scores 60 pts and plays his tenacious style is worth 7M.

Exactly. Everything that could have went wrong, went wrong and yes he appeared to not handle it well under Sutter as the season went on. But Kadri's stock in the eyes of many on CP has fallen to comical levels at this point.
Yes, 7X7 was likely a mistake by Treliving, but he's also not some anchor, past his prime player that adds nothing and needs to be bought out/shipped out with retention/draft picks. Under a new coach, full off season he'll likely be back to a goal scoring, feisty top 6 forward and the sky won't be falling at having him on the team.
