St. Louis Blues right winger Jordan Kyrou became the subject of trade rumors this spring following his club's first-round playoff elimination. Despite being under contract through 2030-31 [https://puckpedia.com/player/jordan-kyrou], some observers wondered where the 27-year-old fit into the club's long-term plans [https://thehockeynews.com/news/latest-news/nhl-rumor-roundup-the-latest-on-the-blues-avalanche-and-canucks]. The speculation reached a crescendo by the NHL draft in late June, with some reports [https://thehockeynews.com/news/latest-news/nhl-rumor-roundup-notable-trade-candidates-before-the-2025-nhl-draft] linking Kyrou to the Montreal Canadiens [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/montreal-canadiens]. However, the Canadiens instead acquired promising middle-six right winger Zack Bolduc on July 1, while Kyrou's full no-trade clause kicked in on the same day. Despite some reports subsequently claiming [https://thehockeynews.com/news/latest-news/nhl-rumor-roundup-are-the-montreal-canadiens-pursuing-jordan-kyrou] the Canadiens and other clubs remained interested in Kyrou, the trade chatter surrounding him has died off in recent weeks. Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic reported [https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6555485/2025/08/16/blues-mailbag-dalibor-dvorsky-logan-mailloux/?source=emp_shared_article] hearing nothing specific regarding Blues [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/st-louis-blues] trade rumors lately. However, he indicated that there were clubs still interested in Kyrou. That shouldn't be surprising. Kyrou is a speedy winger with three straight 30-plus-goal seasons on his resume. However, his full no-trade clause gives him complete control over his situation. NHL Rumor Roundup: The Latest Boston Bruins Trade Buzz [https://deweb-519a7.b-cdn.net/post-images/a570b0f9-daec-4851-b8d7-4fc138385635.webp] NHL Rumor Roundup: The Latest Boston Bruins Trade Buzz After their eight-year playoff run ended last season, the Boston Bruins made moves to bolster their roster for a bounce-back performance in 2025-26. [https://thehockeynews.com/news/latest-news/nhl-rumor-roundup-the-latest-boston-bruins-trade-buzz] Meanwhile, despite the significant increase in this season's salary cap, no RFAs have signed offer sheets thus far this summer. That seems unusual, considering notable players, such as Anaheim Ducks [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/anaheim-ducks] center Mason McTavish and Minnesota Wild [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/minnesota-wild] center Marco Rossi, remain unsigned. Some observers suggest that teams with plentiful salary-cap space lack the draft picks required as compensation for a successful offer-sheet signing. Dan Kingerski of Pittsburgh Hockey Now cited [https://pittsburghhockeynow.com/pittsburgh-penguins-trade-talk-kyle-dubas-origin-story-evgeni-malkin-praise/] Penguins [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/pittsburgh-penguins] GM Kyle Dubas recently telling the Cam & Strick podcast he'd received calls from clubs wanting to reacquire their second- and third-round picks in the 2026 draft. “And you know why,” Dubas said. “So that's their business.” He suggested he'd be willing to talk to those clubs if they offer up a fair price. Kingerski pointed out that the Penguins own the Blues' and Winnipeg Jets [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/winnipeg-jets]' second-rounders and the San Jose Sharks [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/san-jose-sharks]' third-round pick. The Blues only have $625,000 of salary-cap space, while the Jets have $3.96 million. However, the Sharks have a whopping $19.74 million available [https://puckpedia.com/], putting them in a strong position to sign someone to a lucrative deal if they are willing to get back that third-rounder from the Penguins.
