Nazem Kadri Reportedly Signs 7-Year, $49M Contract with Flames After Avalanche Stint

Nazem Kadri has moved on from the Colorado Avalanche, as Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman reported Thursday that the skilled forward has signed with the Calgary Flames in free agency.

Kadri's deal is for seven years and is worth $49 million, per Friedman.

This is a great get for the Flames, as Kadri played a significant role in Colorado's 2022 Stanley Cup run despite missing time because of injury, and he had been a key player for the franchise since arriving in 2019.

He notched 28 goals and 59 assists for 87 points in 71 regular-season games to help the Avalanche finish with the best record in the Western Conference and capture first place in the Central Division with a 56-19-7 record, plus he was named an All-Star for the first time in his career.
