Photo of Nazem Kadri in a Montreal Canadiens Jersey Sparks Buzz Online
Among the few centermen linked to the Montreal Canadiens this summer, the name Nazem Kadri is the most serious.
First of all, because he's an excellent, well-rounded center who would be a great fit on a second line with Demidov and Laine - and on top of that, he just recorded 67 points with the Calgary Flames.
That said, what's most important to know in this story is that Kadri would reportedly accept a trade to only two teams.
The two teams he would agree to be traded to are the Montreal Canadiens and the Toronto Maple Leafs!
But why is Kadri particularly targeting the Canadiens?
We may now have part of the answer.

A bit like a certain Sidney Crosby, it seems Kadri grew up as a huge Montreal Canadiens fan.
That could explain it.
One thing's for sure: the name Nazem Kadri likely won't stop being linked to the Montreal Canadiens- even coming from Detroit Red Wings sources.
Nazem Kadri, 34 years old, is a 6-foot, 185-pound center who was drafted 7th overall by the Toronto Maple Leafs in 2009.
He has 710 points in 985 career NHL games, including 307 goals. He recorded 67 and 75 points over the past two full seasons (82 games each).
He also produced at a 100-point pace per 82 games in 2022 with the Colorado Avalanche.
