Something to consider as well is how tight this group of flames are at this point. I think it was Kelly Hrudey who said a few weeks ago that this is the closest group he has seen since covering the flames. That sounds like a good work environment for Kadri as well as any player. His family is all here and, by all accounts, he loves living here.
So it’s a team that’s winning, is in a playoff spot, is a tight group and could be considered to have a bright future with all the young talent on the way. Kadri is also considered a leader on a team for likely the first time in his NHL career. Which most players appreciate.
All that sounds like a situation where a player would not want to leave. Colorado probably has a better chance at a cup but I bet they are not feeling as good as a team right now as the flames are.
