year old with the Kitchener Rangers. He played two seasons with them, including winning an OHL championship and playing in the Memorial Cup Final. A trade in the off-season brought Kadri back home to his London Knights, where he became a leader both on and off the ice.
Kadri is viewed as a slick two-way playmaking center with good speed and perhaps the best hands in the draft. While not an NHL lock, there is a chance he makes the Leafs out of camp this season. If he does not, he will return to the London Knights where he will be counted on to lead the way offensively. He also has a very good shot at making the Canadian U20 team, which will try for it's 6th straight gold medal in Saskatoon.
