			I am a big Kadri fan.  Obviously term and natural regression due to age is a concern, but he should be good for a few years and clearly this team went all in to win now at this point anyway.  I will choose to just live in the now. 
 
In the meantime, Kadri may be my new favourite Flame.  Gonna have to get the t-shirt.

			Does 7 years suck? Yes, but if we win the cup in the next 3-5 it does not matter, I am glad they are going for it, will be exciting time to be a fan for the next 3-5 years and then we rebuild. Better than being mediocre

			Went from expecting Zadorov and Gaudreau to leave in free agency, Tkachuk asking for a trade, Gudbranson goes to Columbus and that Treliving would give Jarnkrok a couple years.

Huberdeau, Weegar, Kadri and Zadorov staying.

I agree. This is the definition of all in and if it blows up on us in 4 or 5 years we also could get that all in rebuild then as well. I absolutely love everything Brad is doing. This is the definition on not just being happy with being a middle of the pack team and making the playoffs

My worry is age. Primarily. 
 
I mean, when you look at the age of a lot of this group, they're going to have 2-3 years to get 'er done.
 
After that we are going to suck....They're going to be hitting the ice with those walkers with the tennis balls on the bottom.

			We are going to be an aging post-cups Chicago team in years 4-7 but we should have some good times before then. 
 
At that point, we hope for the cap to expanded to a huge amount and then Huberdeau and Kadri cycle down to 2nd, 3rd lines and become depth nearer the end of their contracts.

Yes, Kadri turned down a trade to Calgary from Toronto in 2019, but as he said at the time: it had everything to do with wanting to remain a Maple Leaf. 
 
Believe Calgary had become a frontrunner for Kadri in the last few weeks. And now…deal is done. #Flames
