I wrote this back in 2013, and out of extreme laziness, I thought I could just re-post it again now and get back to reading Michael Wolff’s Fire and Fury.
Just re-post it, I thought, because nothing has really changed from then to now for Nazem Kadri. And it’s really short so it won’t take you more than a handful of seconds.

I agree with Brendan Gallagher when he says Nazem Kadri is a twit.
“He sits on the bench yapping his mouth, he gets on the ice and all of a sudden he’s scared,” says Gallagher.
So the game plan (in my mind) for tomorrow night is hopefully erase the yapping any which way. Maybe a Brandon Prust smash to the nostril area. Maybe a Gallagher accidental high stick. And if you recall this guy slamming Lars Eller into the boards and standing over him like he was Charles Bronson, then maybe Eller can return the favour and send a miniature cast iron replica of the Little Mermaid up one of Kadri’s orifices. Any will do.
Kahri now has a whack of confidence after being promoted so heavily by Don Cherry over the past while, and I think any of the above solutions would be good for him. It’d be a solid learning experience, albeit painful, and he’ll come out of it a better man. It’s all about growing as a person.
A little pain never hurt anybody.
Kadri also has a really shitty autograph, but then again, everyone else does too. I’ve seen worse, I guess.
