It feels like Jordan Kyrou<\/a>\u2018s name has popped in and out of trade rumors<\/a> from the moment he signed a long-term extension to stay in St. Louis. At times, that speculation has been legitimate, while other times it\u2019s felt like GM Doug Armstrong trying to light a fire under his star winger.<\/p>\n

That being said, this time around is different, in large part because the Blues are in the midst of a disastrous season, sitting second-last in the league, ahead of only the rebuilding Vancouver Canucks. As a result, a Kyrou trade appears more possible than ever, and one insider went as far as to say he would be surprised to see him in St. Louis come the start of next season.<\/p>\n

David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period shared the latest on the most recent DFO Rundown, suggesting that the writing is on the wall for Kyrou as a Blue.<\/p>\n

Pagnotta said<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe other big guy that I\u2019m looking at is Jordan Kyrou. I would be surprised if Kyrou is a member of the Blues next season. I\u2019m not sure where those conversations are going to go over the next two and a half weeks before the deadline. But I believe he, as well, is open to a change of scenery and is kind of just waiting to see when that happens. Is it between now and March 6, or is it going to be in the summer around the draft or something like that? He has a full no-trade clause, but every indication I\u2019ve been given is that he\u2019s open to waiving it for the right situation.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 27-year-old Kyrou is in year three of the aforementioned eight-year, $65 million extension signed with the Blues in 2022. He has tallied 32 points (13 goals, 19 assists) across 47 games played this season.<\/p>\n

Teams to Watch for Jordan Kyrou<\/p>\n

Interest in Kyrou has been \u2014 and will continue to be \u2014 significant, with no shortage of teams around the league capable of making a compelling case for acquiring him.<\/p>\n

Pagnotta lists Seattle, Detroit, Montreal<\/a>, Utah, and Toronto<\/a> as those linked to Kyrou on his trade watch board<\/a>, though the number of suitors surely doesn\u2019t stop there. The New York Islanders have also recently been connected<\/a> to the three-time 70-point producer, while others like Carolina, Pittsburgh, Washington, Buffalo, Boston, Ottawa, Anaheim, Chicago, and even Edmonton could make sense as teams looking to add a true difference-maker up front.<\/p>\n

Armstrong\u2019s high asking price has often been a major reason deals involving his players haven\u2019t materialized in recent years, and that still could be an issue here. However, now that both Kyrou and the team are ready for a split, it could be in the best interest of both parties to get something done before the March 6 deadline.<\/p>\n
