I saw this on SN this morning. I was also a Kadri fan, and this time it looks like he tried not to hit him. Looks legal to me too.

The refs arm was up immediately, so there was no hesitation on the call like some that are made after the fact.
To me, if Kadri hadn't extended upward with his motion then it was a good hit. But because he lifted and contact was made solely with the head. He's done. Elbow tucked or not, he extended his shoulder upwards. He tried and failed to make it clean.
The direction he came from could possibly be considered blindside too.

Wow! I guess he really didn't learn his lesson after his 2nd suspension in the Leafs playoffs. After last season with the Avs I thought he had matured and learned how to control himself.
