The Colorado Avalanche forward is facing discipline for an illegal check to the head of St. Louis Blues defenseman Justin Faulk.
Kadri is not playing in Game 3 of the Stanley Cup First Round at the St. Louis Blues on Friday. A player is offered an in-person hearing if the infraction might require a suspension of six games or more. In this case, Kadri is suspended until the hearing takes place.
Faulk also is not playing in Game 3. He has an upper-body injury.
The incident occurred with 13:34 remaining in the third period of Colorado's 6-3 win in Game 2 at Ball Arena on Wednesday. Kadri was given a match penalty at 6:30.
The following grounds are being considered for supplemental discipline: illegal check to the head. However, the Department of Player Safety retains the right to make adjustments to the infraction upon review.
The in-person hearing would be held via Zoom.
