Who could really use Jordan Kyrou, but it won’t happen
The Sheet with Jeff Marek: Marek on which team could really use St. Louis Blues forward Jordan Kyrou, but it won’t happen because of who their current head coach is.
Marek: “Really quick on Kyrou. Just, just as a follow up. There’s one team out there that could really use him and his speed, but considering who the coach is, there’s not a chance that’s going to happen. And that’s Toronto.
A team that looks so slow. But I just want to be in the room. I just want to be in the room to hear the conversation where Brad Treliving, says, ‘Hey, hey, Craig, we’re thinking about bringing in Jordan Kyrou. I just want to be in the room. I just want to be in the room to hear, I just want to hear that one.”
Greg Whyshynski: “Him and Taresenko, a two-for.”

The Canadien have been linked to Nazem Kadri, with Brayden Schenn and Ryan O’Reilly as likely later season targets. They’re off to a hot start and are getting by, so the need isn’t pressing, but they’ll be keeping an eye on the trade market.
