Calgary Wants to Keep Kadri, But Offers Getting “Very Tempting.” |

It’s summertime and of course, that means Nazem Kadri rumors!
To be clear, Calgary wants to keep Kadri, who is under contract through 2029 and holds a full no-move clause until July 2026…when it shifts to a 13-team NMC. Talking to my sources around the league, it’s clear that Calgary is getting a lot of calls about him and are absolutely not shopping him at this time…
And for good reason.
Kadri is coming off a very strong season… 35 goals and 67 points over 82 games. He has in fact missed very few games over the last several years …He is also a locker room guy who is quite respected in Calgary…
So why all the rumors?
It’s pretty simple really. Kadri is a unique player and the kind of player that teams are looking more and more to add to their lineup. He plays a very Florida Panthers type game and this is very much a copycat league…a source has also confirmed to me the Flames could get quite the ransom for him and the question is “Are the Calgary Flames in a rebuild?”
Who is interested?
Of course, the Leafs are always tied back to Kadri, but I really don’t see that….Montreal, Carolina, NJ, and a return to Colorado are the other teams currently showing interest….It should be noted the Avalanche still miss Kadri, who was a key part of their Cup run….
What say you?
