Nazem Kadri just fired a massive shot at the Maple Leafs on a radio show outraging fans.

Kadri Disses Leafs On Air

In a candid interview, Nazem Kadri, known for his 10-year stint with the Toronto Maple Leafs during his illustrious 14-year NHL career, didn't shy away from expressing his unfiltered thoughts about his former team.

While Kadri has experienced tremendous success since departing from the Leafs and even clinching a Stanley Cup victory with the Colorado Avalanche, his recent season with the Calgary Flames left much to be desired, as the team failed to secure a playoff spot.

During his appearance on Sportsnet 960, Kadri delivered a remark that sent shockwaves through the hockey community, appearing to take a direct jab at the Leafs faithful:

"I played in Toronto for 10 years. I can shrug things off pretty easily"

Kadri Focuses On Flames

Despite the controversy surrounding Kadri's statement, it's evident that his unwavering focus lies with the Flames as he eagerly anticipates the upcoming season, driven to help his new team secure a playoff berth once again.

Demonstrating his unwavering confidence in Ryan Huska, the Flames' newly appointed head coach, Kadri spoke highly of their numerous one-on-one conversations. He commended Huska's wealth of coaching experience, his intimate understanding of the organization and its players, and his ability to think outside the box in the rapidly evolving landscape of the NHL, where offensive prowess is paramount.

Admittedly, Kadri's individual performance last season with the Flames fell short of his outstanding achievements during the previous year with the Avalanche, where he tallied an impressive 28 goals and 87 points. Nevertheless, Kadri remains resolute in his determination to rebound alongside his Flames teammates in the upcoming season, igniting their collective pursuit of success.
