And Kadri is signed at 7 million, is 8 years older and signed for two additional years.
I like Kadri and I believe he is the better player today for sure but Kadri's contract is not appealing for other teams. Father time has been known to be almost unbeatable and Kadri is quickly approaching the age where most players start to really fall off.
It simply doesn't make sense for the AVS and if you view things from a completely non-bias way, it's easy to see why Mittelstadt is worth more.
