Both players drafted in same year, around .7 production over their careers and stanley cup winners. RoR was a legit 1st line center at one point and won a selke though.

We paid a 1st to sign kadri 7x7.
RoR 4.5x4.

Just terrible.

Kadri picked an amazing time to have a career year and playoff run. 100pt pace and point per game playoff run to the cup put him in a great spot.

Nashville is also a desireable market in a location with no state tax and a nice climate.

The Kadri contract is a massive blunder when you look one year later and this team has a new GM, coach and missed the playoffs.
