Despite widespread speculation linking Nazem Kadri to several other teams in early trade discussions, NHL insider Darren Dreger suggests any trade discussions at this point are premature. Kadri, a seasoned two-way, second-line center, has reportedly attracted interest from multiple Canadian markets, including the Montreal Canadiens, Vancouver Canucks, and Toronto Maple Leafs. Dreger notes that these teams could certainly envision adding an experienced pivot like Kadri to their lineup. However, according to the insider, the current buzz is primarily driven by media speculation rather than concrete development or serious discussions. “There’s a lot of talk, a lot of speculation driven by the media,” Dreger. “The reality is that Kadri loves Calgary, and unless the Flames decide their roster needs reconstruction, a trade isn’t likely at this stage.”
