NHL Trade Rumors: Nazem Kadri could join Montreal Canadiens after Toronto Maple Leafs blocked by Calgary Flames
Bill Wippert/Getty Nazem Kadri may be headed back to the Eastern Conference and the Montreal Canadiens could be the front-runners. With Calgary reportedly refusing to negotiate any trades with the Toronto Maple Leafs, Kadri's list of potential destinations has effectively narrowed to just one team. Given his consistent production and Montreal's need for veteran help up the middle, this could be a perfect short-term fit. Calgary Flames shut door on Toronto Maple Leafs, Nazem Kadri eyes Montreal Canadiens as realistic trade option Nazem Kadri is reportedly open to a trade to either the Montreal Canadiens or his former team, the Toronto Maple Leafs. However, with Calgary Flames management unwilling to make a deal with Toronto, still harboring friction from Brad Treliving's tenure as Flames GM that path appears closed. Sportsnet's Nick Kypreos reported that Treliving has previously tried to acquire players like Chris Tanev, Nikita Zadorov, and Rasmus Andersson from Calgary, but has been shut down at every turn. That history makes it highly unlikely that the Flames would greenlight any trade that sends Kadri back to the Maple Leafs. This leaves the Canadiens as the only viable trade destination Kadri would reportedly consider. Montreal's growing core, including top prospect Ivan Demidov and head coach Martin St. Louis' high-skill system could make the Canadiens an appealing spot for the 34-year-old centerman. Montreal Canadiens could land reliable veteran Nazem Kadri with proven scoring punch and leadership Kadri is coming off back-to-back seasons of 67 and 75 points, playing a full 82 games in both campaigns. He has tallied 710 points in 985 NHL games and once posted a 100-point pace during the 2021–22 season with Colorado. At 6-foot and 185 pounds, Kadri brings experience, physicality, and versatility to any middle-six unit. With Montreal's top prospect Michael Hage still developing, Kadri could be a strong short-term option to stabilize the Canadiens' second line alongside Demidov. His leadership and playoff pedigree would be especially valuable to a young team looking to take the next step. If Calgary refuses to deal with Toronto, the road is clear for the Montreal Canadiens to pursue Nazem Kadri. Given his proven scoring ability and desire for a fresh start, a move to Montreal could benefit both sides, if the price is right. As trade rumors heat up, the Canadiens may quietly be positioning themselves for a bold veteran addition. FAQs: 1. How many Stanley Cups has Nazem Kadri won? Kadri won one Stanley Cup with the Colorado Avalanche during the 2021–22 NHL season. 2. When was Nazem Kadri drafted and by which team? Kadri was drafted 7th overall by the Toronto Maple Leafs in the 2009 NHL Draft.

Canadiens: Another Solution For the Second Center Conundrum?
Kent Hughes has had an active Summer so far. Before the draft, he acquired Noah Dobson from the New York Islanders to address one of the Montreal Canadiens' pressing needs. While some were arguing that Logan Mailloux could fill the void left by David Savard's retirement, the GM wanted a proven commodity to strengthen his lineup. Additionally, his decision to trade Mailloux might have already been made. The young defenseman was sacrificed to acquire some help up front in Zachary Bolduc from the St. Louis Blues, a 22-year-old with scoring upside.
