If Kadri reaches free agency, one report suggests he could throw EVERYONE for a loop with where he signs
A rumour has come out that indicates that Nazem Kadri, should he choose to leave the Avalanche this summer rather than re-signing, could be headed back to the Atlantic Division. Kevin Paul DuPont, a senior writer for the Boston Sports Globe, mentioned on Friday that Kadri could be a potential option for the Boston Bruins if captain Patrice Bergeron plans to retire.
Bergeron is coming off his 19th season at age 36 and has been nothing short of a warrior for the Bruins, but has a lot of hard miles on him, suffering countless injuries over the span of a great career. The B's may need to fill a huge void production-wise come next season.
Meanwhile, Kadri is focused and engaged as he continues his push for the Stanley cup with the Colorado Avalanche. Coming off a great season, with 28 goals and 59 assists, Kadri continues his bid to impress in the playoffs to maximize his value in an attempt to cash in this summer. So far, with 5 goals and 5 assists in 9 games for the Avs, Kadri is doing just that.
This move would also be pulling on some heart strings in Toronto, as Kadri remains beloved by Leafs fans, and were he to sign in Boston, it may not sit so well with some of his long-time fans. It could also throw fans in Boston for a loop as Kadri has been one of the Bruins' most hated rivals in the last decade. Need I remind you about the Jake DeBrusk incident?
