Blues' Jordan Kyrou: Continues strong play in December
Rotowire
Kyrou scored his team-leading 11th goal of the season in Thursday's 4-3 loss to San Jose.
Kyrou closed out the scoring Thursday when he cut San Jose's lead to one goal at 7:57 of the final frame. The right-shot winger has four goals and an assist through five contests in December, and he's registered at least one point four of those games. Kyrou has been a consistent producer for the Blues, as he hasn't been held off the scoresheet in back-to-back games since the end of October. The 26-year-old is leading St. Louis in scoring with 11 goals and 25 helpers through 30 appearances.

Rotowire
Kyrou scored twice on seven shots and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Jets.
Kyrou opened the scoring at 18:04 of the second period and added another tally in the third. The Blues' lineup shuffle put him alongside Brayden Schenn and Dylan Holloway, and the early returns were promising for that trio. This was Kyrou's first multi-point effort since Oct. 24, though he has been steady -- he was on the scoresheet in 11 out of 14 games in November. The winger has nine tallies, 22 points, 78 shots on net, 19 hits and a plus-4 rating through 26 appearances.

Rotowire
Kyrou scored a goal on three shots in Monday's 5-2 win over the Rangers.

His offense is as steady as ever, and a little extra physicality helps round out his stat line for fantasy.

Blues' Jordan Kyrou: Continues productive season
Rotowire
Kyrou notched an even-strength assist in Sunday's 4-1 loss to Carolina.
Kyrou set up Jake Neighbours' fifth goal of the season to open the scoring in the loss.

Blues' Jordan Kyrou: Snags assist Thursday
Rotowire
Kyrou posted an assist in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Sabres.
Kyrou extended his point streak to six games (three goals, three assists) when he set up a Pavel Buchnevich tally in the second period. However, Kyrou saw a season-low 14:29 of ice time Thursday, which could be a concern if his role shrinks in the near future. The 26-year-old has been strong with five goals, 10 assists and 51 shots on net through 17 contests, but his fantasy value is dependent on offense. He's also earned just three power-play points after logging 20-plus points with the man advantage in each of the previous two years.

Blues' Jordan Kyrou: Goals harder to get this season
Rotowire
Kyrou scored a goal Tuesday in a 3-2 win over Tampa Bay.
He converted Brayden Schenn's pass to the slot from the left wall; the goal stood as the winner. Kyrou now has a goal in each of his last two games after going 10 outings without a snipe. He has 11 points, including four goals, in 13 appearances. Kyrou's pace is similar to his usual output, but his goal tally is lagging. He's on pace for 25 after averaging 34 goals over the last two years. His production may be tied to Robert Thomas's (ankle) playmaking, so his speedy return to health would help Kyrou.

Blues' Jordan Kyrou: Logs two apples in win
Rotowire
Kyrou picked up two assists in a 5-1 victory over Toronto on Thursday.
Kyrou, who hasn't scored a goal since Opening Night (seven games), is still making an impact on the ice with his playmaking, including dogged work on the forecheck Thursday to set up two tallies. He has nine points (two goals, seven assists) in eight games this season, including three in his last two appearances. Kyrou will be counted on to step up with more offense since Robert Thomas (ankle) is out for at last six weeks. Kyrou won't be able to contribute at the dot or take on Thomas's responsible two-way game. However, Kyrou has averaged 31 goals and 71 points over the last three seasons and needs to take it to another level this season to help the Blues get into the postseason.

Blues' Jordan Kyrou: Draws helper in loss
Rotowire
Kyrou provided an assist, four shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Jets.
Kyrou started the season with three straight multi-point efforts, then followed it up with three scoreless outings. The 26-year-old winger will have to move forward without Robert Thomas (ankle), who is expected to miss at least six weeks after blocking a shot Tuesday. Kyrou has seven points, 21 shots on net and a plus-4 rating through seven contests, but he'll be leaned on for offense for a while.

Blues' Jordan Kyrou: Generates pair of assists
Rotowire

Kyrou has rattled off three straight multi-point efforts to open 2024-25. He set up both of Pavel Buchnevich's tallies in this contest, including one on the power play. Kyrou is up to two goals, four assists, a plus-4 rating and four shots on net through three appearances. His chemistry on the second line with Buchnevich has made both forwards reliable scorers in fantasy.

Blues' Jordan Kyrou: Two helpers in overtime win
Rotowire
Kyrou logged two assists in Thursday's 5-4 overtime win over the Sharks.
Kyrou helped out on goals by Pavel Buchnevich and Justin Faulk in this contest. It's been an excellent start to 2024-25 for Kyrou, who has a pair of multi-point efforts on his ledger already after scoring twice in Seattle in the season opener Tuesday. Offense is all Kyrou has to offer for fantasy managers -- he doesn't hit, block shots or take penalties frequently, and his plus-minus is often a liability, especially on a Blues team that is likely to struggle against tougher competition.

Blues' Jordan Kyrou: Tickles twine twice in win
Rotowire
Kyrou scored twice Tuesday in a 3-2 win over the Kraken.
Kyrou got the Blues first goal on the power play at 13:42 of the second period. He cut around Seattle defender Jamie Oleksiak and slid the puck through Philipp Grubauer's five-hole with a backhand. Then he clinched the game on a breakaway late in the third. Kyrou has averaged 32 goals and 72 points over the three regular seasons, but his plus-minus has swung wildly in that span. He had a minus-48 swing from 2021-22 to 2022-23 and then had a plus-26 swing in 2023-24. He's on an upward trajectory in that category, and Kyrou could establish a career-best campaign in points playing alongside Robert Thomas, who has emerged as a star playmaker.

Blues' Jordan Kyrou: Rings up another 30-goal campaign
Rotowire
Kyrou recorded 31 goals and 67 points -- 21 on the power play -- through 82 games during the 2023-24 season.
Kyrou made some strides in his defensive game, as he finished minus-12 after registering minus-38 last year, but he still has work to do in that area. Nevertheless, the 25-year-old got red-hot down the stretch with 10 goals over the final 13 contests to finish his second straight 30-goal season -- he finished 2022-23 with 37 markers. Kyrou will be a staple in the Blues offense for years to come, making him a coveted fantasy asset.

Blues' Jordan Kyrou: Lights lamp twice in big win
Rotowire
Kyrou scored two goals in Wednesday's 5-2 win over Chicago.
The goals came 42 seconds apart early in the first period, one on a clear breakaway and the other on a 2-on-1 as Chicago's defense stayed in the locker room to begin the game. Kyrou has found the back of the net four times in the last four games to help keep the Blues' playoff hopes alive, and over the last 10 games he's erupted for eight goals and 15 points. The 25-year-old winger needs only one more tally in St. Louis' final three games to record his second straight 30-goal campaign.

Rotowire
Kyrou notched three assists, including two on the power play, in Sunday's 6-5 shootout win over the Ducks.
This was Kyrou's first multi-point effort in seven games. The 25-year-old winger helped out on the Blues' last three goals, and he also had the lone tally in the shootout to secure the win. Kyrou's up to 63 points (20 on the power play), 239 shots on net and a minus-12 rating through 78 appearances this season. He's had a solid year, but he'll likely fall short of the 70-point mark for the first time since 2020-21.

Kyrou scored a goal on the power play in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Sharks.
With his team down 2-0 in the third frame, Kyrou fired a wrister to score on the power play from between the dots. It was his 27th goal on the season and his seventh on the power play.

It was his second marker in as many games, and it comes as a relief after putting up zero points in his previous two outings.
