This board is unbelievable. Kadri has been okay, not bad but not great either. Carlyle knows he's capable of better, and is pushing him to be better. Okay, yeah it's difficult to produce points with Colton and Ashton on his wings, but I'd take a guess it's not the production Carlyle's concerned with.
He's sending a message, a very obvious one given Bolland is getting Naz's ice time. Be better defensively, and stop with the giveaways. Kadri should have a little leeway, like Kessel, because he's a creative player and guys like him are gonna give the puck away.
We need Kule back, having him on Naz's line is great because he's so good defensively that he can make up for Kadri's mistakes, as well as put the puck in the net
