Not to feed the trolls but just posting a proposed trade from a Pitt fan board that I found interesting -- Kyrou for Erik Karllson (with Penguins retaining max), Rutger McGroaty and a Second Rounder. Despite the obvious fence-mending with Holloway, an interesting deal that I would not immediately say no to.
I say No way….
And Pittsburgh? You know Kyrou would say “Hell No!” to that idea.
Just for the record in case you're sick of seeing this stuff posted without context like it's late breaking news... the quote from Seravalli that the Blues are motivated to move Kyrou is from a July 1 interview. That is the extent of what he said, and it was on the first day of free agency. https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/t ... 0715460775
The supposed quote that Kyrou told his agent "of course, yes" about accepting a trade to Montreal is attributed to anonymous sources and it comes from a Montreal sports fan site. https://www.danslescoulisses.com/exclus ... -montreal/

I’m sure the second one is just made up….pure fan speculation.
If your Kerouac and you really wanted to go to Montreal…why doesn’t he or his agent come out in public.
No one has ever brought up the thought that “why is Kyrou been so quiet through all of this rumor talk?
Could it be that Army told him, “you’re not going anywhere”. We will never know.
Empty claims of loser podcast guys that get 500 views or random Reddit fans means absolutely nothing except to the princesses who don’t know much about hockey.

I think one person spouts it, then the rest latch on and it truly seems like “everyone is talking about it”

to deny the blues arent shopping him, is laughable. this is 2nd time they have floated his name out there for a trade. Actually 3rd time.
tkachuk rumored deal was around kyrou
kyrou shopped in 24
kyrou shopped again in 2025
I do know Thomas and Kyrou are tight, very tight, so i wonder how thomas feels abut the constant rumors of his buddy being shopped.
Calgary’s ask was centered around Kyrou, doesn’t mean we were offering him, probably why the deal fell apart eh?
In 24 and 25 just because teams ask, doesn’t mean we’re offering. Especially when you consider it’s bloggers, and any reputable source is also quoting them.

As laughable as not believing Kyrou wouldn’t be excited for change? I mean I can’t think of any reasons he’d want to leave. It’s really, really difficult. Like I can’t think of one. I can’t think of half of one.

JR reported the Blues offered Tarasenko, Scandella and picks for MT. JR is usually pretty conservative.
No doubt CGY wanted Kyrou and why Army didn’t go there, we’ll never know.
I saw a Kyrou to Boston, rumor I guess, today that popped on and off my phone. These are wishful thinkers I guess. also, on and off was a McDavid to Black Hawks rumor. Sure, sure ..he want a Cup win and would go to a last place team'

Please post anything with any credibility backing that Blues are shopping him any more than they are shopping the rest of the roster?

Tkachuk didn’t want St. Louis. Blues could have offered whatever.
Kyrou hasn’t been getting much love from the organization for a long time. It must be pretty uncomfortable I’m sure

He knew he wanted Florida. It didn’t come down to the blues offer

There is nothing out there supporting this so unless you know inside info that hasn’t been reported, you’re pulling it out of your (bleep)

Lots of people in the know say that. That he wanted that. That his family was excited at the prospect too. Him driving the bus and his family supporting/wanting. His behavior right away indicated it too. Saying he wanted to be there forever.
If you listen to his words after…it supports it too. He said Florida “came to my lap.” He had choice.? He chose it.
Tkachuk drove this process. He had lots of power in it.

He def had power because he could say who he’d sign with but I’ve seen nothing that supports any claim that he only wanted Florida or even preferred it. The Panthers were on his list as were the Blues and Carolina. These were the teams he said he’d sign with, thereby getting CGY top return. The Panthers made the offer CGY liked best. MT signed accordingly.
Beyond that is pure speculation unless, again, you have sources that aren’t public.
Please point me to people in the know saying anything more. I genuinely mean that bc I’m very interested in this particular trade.
