ROR is a year younger(4 months) with a 64 point season while Kadri's best output was 50. ROR is a much better defensive forward than Kadri. I'm guessing more teams would rather have ROR.

ROR's game is seriously regressing, while Kadri's game has really improved this year. Especially defensively. At this point in time...Kadri is better, IMO. And cheaper.

ROR is leading the league in takeaways and he almost never takes penalties. Kadri has 3 more points than ROR this season in the same amount of games. Kadri is also due a hefty raise after this season, probably 5.5 which is still cheaper but RORs deal is up next season.

Kadri needs a new contract next season. Minimum he takes is 5 million which is only a million cheaper than ROR.

Honestly, I don't care though.

Yes. Getting rid of always injured Lupul (and his contract) and Clarkson's contract is fine by me. I realize Richard's contract isn't much better but at least he provides some leadership and depth at a position where it is needed in Toronto.

I hope this is a joke.

Kings don't need 1 bad contact for 2.

FYI kings most likleu want defense. Like every other team

ROR is a nice player, who will hopefully bounce back after this season. And you're right...he probably is looked at as a slightly better player than Kadri, at this point. But the notion that it would take Kadri +++ to get Ryan O'Reilly is a joke.

I agree. He's a good player but you don't give up a bounty to get a good player. I'd rather have ROR for his two way game but it all comes down to team philosophy for which one you would rather have.

Lol...come on. A signed Franson gets you ROR all by himself.

Seriously regressing? That might be a slight exaggeration.
