As far as him being signed for too long, he has proven that he isn't slowing down. He's on pace for 71 points this season. He had 67 points last year and 75 the year before. Those numbers are pretty remarkable when you consider how much the Flames are actually scoring.

The raising cap, and depleted free agent market has made Kadri into a value contract and a prized commodity. As a comparable Colorado gave 34 year old, 55-60 point center, Brock Nelson a $7.5M x 3 years.

That’s my point. There is limit on number of team that want and can afford Kadri. Colorado is one of them because they want to win now

Sec must have been there too, because they both posted right after his Gif

Power + Quinn though...

I'd waaaay rather Helenius than either power or Quinn. He should be target number 1 .

Kadri is a hard guy to deal. Too old and contract too long. He was a FA for a long time before Treliving signed him. Same reservation around the league at this time as well.

Only teams that think they can win now and willing to go all in would trade for him. He is not a piece you trade for to use long term

So you think it’s an absolute failure if the team doesn’t trade Kadri but also don’t think he is worth much. Pick a lane

Don't have to pick a lane when you are in the ditch.

CP in a nutshell

Team is horrible but too good, coach sucks but wins too much with no talent. All our players are overpaid bums we need to trade them for high end assets. Every AHL tweener that is traded or lost to waivers is a major asset loss, every player we pick up on waivers is a waste of space.

I am saying it’s not easy to trade him and yes I want him traded if possible

I am always on the good lane

I feel like Frank always states the obvious.
