The Calgary Flames are no longer considering trades for Nazem Kadri, as he played a pivotal role in their recent resurgence, contributing significantly to their performance last season. After a rebuild that saw the departure of notable players, the Flames finished with 96 points but missed the playoffs. Kadri, alongside Jonathan Huberdeau and rookie goaltender Dustin Wolf, has been crucial to the team's competitive edge.

With Kadri expressing his love for Calgary and the organization, it seems the Flames view him as a cornerstone for their plans moving forward, especially as they eye potential playoff contention. Meanwhile, discussions surrounding Rasmus Andersson's contract extension are ongoing, with the Flames hoping to secure him for the long term, despite potential trade rumors looming as the draft approaches.
