I think a lot of teams would love to get a cancer like that! Mind you the Blues gave him too much money too soon. The big question is what's the real problem with the Blues top line, is it Kyrou, O'Reilly or just bad chemistry between the two of them?

If Kyrou is a cancer, then STL management really didn't do their homework before signing that deal. But if they trade Kyrou, it would be for another young top 6 forward

Oh FFS, what are you on about?

I don't think he's cancer, but something sure is up with him this season. A terrible October and the worst +/- so far. Maybe he's a flash in the pan last year

Only reason I say Kyrou is a cancer is mainly assumption based off of the latest Athletic post from Rutherford.

"Do the Blues have an internal issue with the fact that Kyrou was signed to an eight-year, $65 million contract? Yes, there’s perhaps some resentment about the 24-year-old’s receiving a monster deal before he’d fully proved himself, and his mistake-prone play so far this season may have only exacerbated that. According to multiple team sources, a veteran player on more than one occasion this season has addressed Kyrou’s lackadaisical performance with him, and there’s been no significant change yet."

Only assumption is that the money has gotten to his head and he may think he is above everyone else, and veteran leadership is not a fan at all of this

Let's just say he's the problem and has to go, he isn't going anywhere for another top4 defensemen let alone 2 defensemen.
Defense is locked in for the blues for years to come, it'd be a very high potential forward prospect or an already established young top 6 forward.
