The Surprising Trade Destinations for Nazem Kadri No One Saw Coming
NHL Rumors: Connor McDavid and Kirill Kaprizov
Carolina Hurricanes
The Carolina Hurricanes are an interesting team. They just signed Nikolaj Ehlers in free agency and have $10 million in cap space and could take on the whole salary. GM Eric Tulsky has been aggressive this offseason, acquiring K’Andre Miller. Adding Kadri would give the Hurricanes depth down the middle. Kadri would slot in behind Sebastian Aho turning the veteran Jordan Staal into the third-line center he has become.
While the Hurricanes have the first-round draft pick in 2028, what else do they have that would be enticing for the Flames to move Kadri to Carolina? Logan Stankoven, whom the Hurricanes got in the Mikko Rantanen trade, is signed up long-term. Jackson Blake just signed a new long-term deal to stay in Carolina. The Flames are not taking on Jesperi Kotkaniemi’s contract. A guy that could get it done is Seth Jarvis. He makes $7,420,087 a season and is in year two of a seven-year deal. Oh, and he does not have trade protection for a couple of more seasons. Jarvis keeps the Flames in playoff contention, but would the Hurricanes be willing to part with him for Kadri?
