Interesting perspective, maybe there's something to this. My first reaction was that Kadri's gone but having had a few days to digest, I'm not so sure.
How his teammates feel has to be a part of it. If they're pissed at him that's a strike against him. How much should we read into the fact that he leads the stretching at practice? I'm sure some will say that's nothing but I'm not sure, perhaps it's an indication that his teammates view him as well, a teammate and a valued one at that and having him lead the stretch was their way of saying we love you man.
How the rest of the playoffs go is huge. If we lose to Boston, it's hard to see him being here next season, if we get past them and maybe win another round or two or ... gasp ... even win the cup with him being a big part of it ... well obviously the further we go and the better he plays, the better his chances are of staying.
Trade value is always a big thing, no matter what happens we're not giving him away so if his suspensions scare suitors away and teams try to scoop him up for a song, he's staying.
I've always been a big fan of Kadri and hopefully this story has many chapters yet to be written. Gotta get past Boston first.
GLG!!
