Me either. Appreciate your opinion.

What's known is that he hasn't been moved and just about nothing else. The rest is speculation and rumors and zero facts.
The facts are there has been a big rift with management and that teams are weary of compete and utility issues given the high price tag

Those are facts

Armstrong said teams would tank for Kyrou a couple years back.

How times change I guess

Tarasenko to Minnesota for future considerations. Head scratcher as to why Guerin would take on this salary?

Might be hoping he clicks with Kaprizov.

That's a lot of money for a hopeful rebound. I guess they do not want to pay what Boeser is demanding?

Guess we will see. I’m mean it’s t obvious the Blues are trying to move him.
Hmm whats obvious to me is that the Blues are at least doing their due diligence before his NTC kicks in and that the Blues are willing to move him not that the Blues are trying to move him.

Could be the case but I don't think that is conclusive at all one way or the other.

Maybe I never thought he had as much trade value as some other people did but the names Ive heard rumored for the most part I would consider good returns.

Yeah I don’t think this means the Blues are trying to move him. I think Armstrong understands that there is probably a market worth exploring for him, if the return can help the Blues fill a hole at center or right d. That’s not the same as actively trying to move him. I doubt he’d be taking it down to the July 1 deadline if he really was dead set on moving him.

Honestly, I wasn't impressed by almost all of the offers being floated (other than the Seattle rumor). The Holloway/Schenn/Kyrou line really clicked, as now we actually have two scoring line RH/RW's (it's been a minute), and after the money being thrown around out there, Jordan's contract doesn't look half bad.

Just my 2 cents...

One of the top five goals in Blues' history imo...
I'd put Game 2 of the Finals ahead of it. Gets his own rebound, skating backwards, and roofs it back hand. Chef's kiss.

Speaking of Tarasenko , he is like a nomad as he is now with the Wild!

And what is the deadline for trading Kyrou or not?Is it tonight at midnight central time or what?
And then how long will these free agents be available? What’s the deadline for other trades or that(picking up a restricted or unrestricted agent?). Just a little bit behind the news while I work.

Kyrou’s NTC starts at midnight, not sure if that’s Eastern or Central. It’s effective as of July 1, so I’d assume Eastern so that it covers the whole league.

Free agency starts at Noon Eastern tomorrow. They’re all available until they’re signed, basically.

Thank you for that information blue tune.
So tomorrow starts the fun of seeing if any free agents come to us or if a person like Faska leaves the team

I was thinking of the deadline would be something like 2 o’clock and I was listening to the Local 10 one but nothing might happen for several hours if anything. Management does what they’re gonna do but I don’t think you can have enough goals and there’s no guarantees. Snuggie fits the void of a Kyrou for example.
I was sour on Kyrou he scored 37 and had a -37, and him and Thomas played around too much with the puck instead of heading north south. I think watching Holloway and Kyrou gave me hope and acceptance to keep him.

Kyrou's NTC kicks in at 12 Eastern/11 PM central.
