Nazem Kadri is out for the remainder of the Western Conference Final “at least” after a hit from Evander Kane that Colorado coach Jared Bednar called “the most dangerous play in hockey.”
Kadri, the Avalanche center, left Saturday’s Game 3 after a hit from behind from Kane, the Oilers forward. Kadri was trying to corral the puck, and Kane cross-checked him between the numbers.
“[Kane] puts him in headfirst from behind 8 feet from the boards,” Bednar told reporters after the Avalanche took a 3-0 series lead with a 4-2 victory Saturday in Edmonton. “I’ll leave it at that.”
