He definitely attracted a whole lot of hate in Colorado’s 5-2 win against St. Louis last night. With the win, Colorado took a 2-1 series lead and you can thank Kadri... in a lot of ways. Jordan Binnington has had a very good series for St. Louis so far, and the Blues jumped out to an early 1-0 lead. And then this happened. > Ville Husso is now in between the pipes for the [@StLouisBlues](https://twitter.com/StLouisBlues?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) after Jordan Binnington left with an injury on the play below. ⤵️[#StanleyCup](https://twitter.com/hashtag/StanleyCup?src=hash&ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) | [#stlblues](https://twitter.com/hashtag/stlblues?src=hash&ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) [pic.twitter.com/8oaGHdPHH2](https://t.co/8oaGHdPHH2?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > > — Sportsnet (@Sportsnet) [May 22, 2022](https://twitter.com/Sportsnet/status/1528173644509286401?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) Colorado would tie the game not long after, and Kadri would then score to give Colorado a 2-1 lead. He then assisted on the 3-1 goal, which wound up being the game winner. All while boos rained down from the Blues’ home crowd every time he touched the puck. Now, you can debate whether or not Kadri meant to cause that injury or not. It’s not exactly that clear cut, but for what it’s worth I do think he did shove or bump the Blues defenseman who was trying to stop up in time. And the fans weren’t the only ones unhappy with Kadri.... > Kadri just insinuated Binnington threw a water bottle at him during the interview. Didn’t phase him at all. They’re rattled.

Apparently, Binnington was the one who threw the water bottle. > I've talked to two people who confirmed it was indeed Jordan Binnington who threw the water bottle at Nazem Kadri.
