Kyrou

[blues2112]

Summer trade rumors: In July 2025, several hockey reporters claimed Kyrou was willing to waive his no-trade clause for a move to the Canadiens. A specific report in French Canadian media outlet DansLesCoulisses indicated his response to his agent was, "Absolutely yes!".

That website cited anonymous sources in their original story.

So no, there is no source for that. A Montreal fan site made it up.

Thank you, bluetunehead

So you believe a Blues fan named Bluenuthead at face value

Laughing

A moniker invalidates facts, Verson?

No, I’m encouraging you to educate yourself on your own and form your own opinion.

There’s lots to read my man

Top Sources stated like Seravelli stated that the Blues wanted to move on from Kyrou and that contract. This has been ongoing.

Neither Kyrou’s agent or Kyrou refuted (that I’m aware of) what was being reported being stated by Kyrou/agent.

It’s most likely true. If you were being treated poorly by your organization and always thought they were looking to get rid of you…I’m sure you’d be pumped to be there. Right?

You believe literally any source online that validates your views. I’m not questioning Seravalli saying that the Blues were open to moving Kyrou (though LeBrun questioned if they really wanted to move him or were just kicking the tires). Nobody reputable was putting out anything about how Kyrou was chomping at the bit to go to Montreal. That came unattributed via a single Montreal sports fan site, and then other similarly sourceless fan blogs ran with it. Nobody ever put a name to that quote. Why on earth would Kyrou’s agent ever waste his time commenting on a single anonymous quote? You just eat it up because it’s what you want to read.

The word on the Montreal board is that Kyrou was the main target for Maalox....they're pretty happy that it didn't happen.

that would be the worst trade in Blues history or even in the NHL.

There was a ton of smoke about a bigger deal in the works involving Kyrou and Mailloux's name was mentioned there. At the time, I believe I said I knew it was bull[shirt] because no way would the Blues care about getting Mailloux in a deal involving Kyrou. Now I learn the Blues have been enamored with him for some time...so it was probably true. Not sure what the other pieces were but it seems they were set on getting LM. Can't say I understand what they saw in him...

What has been most likely from the start was that the proposed deal was Kyrou for Reinbacher and one or both sides got cold feet so they pivoted to Bolduc and Mailloux.

That was the rumor. And some thought Neighbours name could've been mentioned.

It's all rumors, so we don't know any specifics.

There is some concern in Montreal about Reinbacher and his injuries. He had knee injury last year and he's out now with a hand fracture.

You know how badly I wanted Kyrou gone, but, even so... when I checked the sources, I could not run with it for long.

I don't doubt the Organization would have moved him in a heartbeat- for fair return.
Nobody wanted to give a fair return as they all saw the Winnipeg Series. Even after factoring in his "Bargain" Contract.

Hence, Kyrou is on the third line for a refresher course on moving the puck North.

I would not doubt that Holloway did "The Crying Game " upchuck when he watched his linemate flinch for four straight games.

[Mr.Snuggleupagus]

Should've traded him (and Buchnevich before extending him) and kept Bolduc....like I said.

Dumb-dumb-dumb

Truly, man, you're losing me on a lot. And I've respected your posts, while sometimes disagreeing. (Usually in silence.)

But postulating that Blues would have traded him, but no fair return; Kyrou third line as a refresher; and "Crying Game" comment is below you as a poster.

I hit back too nasty sometimes, and I sometimes regret it.
The Crying Game upchuck was too far. I don’t know for sure how Holloway feels about Kyrou in the Winnipeg Series as he watched from a hospital or a rehab/recovery place. I picture Holloway eating himself up inside for being unable to compete and help his team win a close battle of a series and earn a huge upset. I suspect Kyrou’s showing horrified him.
Suddenly, our best line becomes our worst.
Is it Holloway has not yet fully recovered, mentally and physically, from such a rare and brutal injury? He is credited with 16 hits this year, which is darned good. His takeaways aren’t there yet, and his blocks are a tad low. He is not playing like he did the second half of last year.
When Kyrou gets a pass in the neutral zone in a rush, he often coughs it up with a poor pass or a terrible attempt to throw it in deep. I see far more plays that I would credit as giveaways than what is shown in the stats. Is Kyrou still having Logan Cooley flashbacks?
I do not know.

I do know that this once admirable line is a shell of its glory days, right now. Some time on the top line will be a tonic for Holloway, I believe. And, some time on a more simple North/South line might help Kyrou remember how simple the transition game can and should be.

My comment about no teams, after seeing the Winnipeg Series, would offer a fair return, even with Kyrou’s bargain contract, was pure speculation… and I could well be wrong about it.

[Harry York 37]

Umm, Logan Stanley flashbacks.
So many Logan’s in the NHL.

If you choose to believe that, it’s your choice. However it’s not really based in reality

[DawgDad]

So, I pick Kyrou for SOG two or three times already, but tonight I switched to Holloway.
