The 24-year-old Kyrou was a second-round pick (35th overall) of the Blues in 2016 and has established himself as a key piece of the team’s core. He had 12 goals and 35 points in 66 games last season, his first full campaign in the NHL.

Kyrou has two goals and five points in nine games this season. He’s averaging 17:31 of ice time per game, including 1:51 on the power play.

The Blues are currently atop the NHL standings with a 12-3-2 record. They’ll be back in action on Thursday night when they host the Colorado Avalanche. Kyrou and the Blues will look to continue their strong play and build on their early-season success.

The Blues selected Kyrou in the second round (35th overall) of the 2016 NHL Entry Draft. In July 2019, Kyrou signed a three-year entry-level contract with the Blues.

Kyrou is a skilled forward who has the ability to make plays at high speed. He’s an excellent skater with good vision and hockey sense. Kyrou is dangerous in the offensive zone, as he has a quick release and good finishing ability. He also plays a solid two-way game and is responsible in his own end of the ice.

“I’ve been a Blues fan my whole life and I can’t wait to get started.”

Kyrou, 20, was drafted in the second round (35th overall) of the 2016 NHL Entry Draft by the Blues. He is currently in his third professional season and has tallied seven goals and 15 assists for 22 points in 37 games with the Blues’ AHL affiliate, the San Antonio Rampage.

Kyrou has the potential to be a top-six forward for the Blues. He’s still developing his game and will likely spend some time in the AHL before making the jump to the NHL full-time. However, he has the talent and skillset to be a very good player at the NHL level. Blues fans should be excited about Kyrou’s future with the team.
