In a surprise twist, the NHL trade deadline has delivered a major upset as the Colorado Avalanche have re-acquired star center Nazem Kadri in a blockbuster trade. The move comes just a year after Kadri was dealt to the Calgary Flames in exchange for a package of draft picks and prospects. The 32-year-old forward played a crucial role in the Avalanche's Stanley Cup championship run in 2022, scoring 22 points in 17 playoff games. With the Avalanche facing a tough stretch of games down the stretch, Kadri's return is expected to provide a significant boost to their lineup and bolster their chances of making a deep playoff run.
