Nazem Kadri has been traded from the Calgary Flames to the Colorado Avalanche. The trade reportedly occurred just before the NHL trade deadline, with Kadri returning to Colorado where he previously played and won the Stanley Cup in 2022. In exchange, the Flames received Victor Olofsson, the rights to unsigned draft pick Max Curran, a conditional first-round pick in 2028, and a conditional second-round pick in 2027.
Olofsson had 29 points in 56 games for Colorado this season, while Kadri had 41 points in 61 games for Calgary. Kadri reportedly signed a seven-year contract with Calgary as a free agent after leaving Colorado in 2022, and he has been a top scorer for the Flames in recent seasons.
