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.

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: 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.

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.

Blues' Jordan Kyrou: Strong play catches coach's eye
Rotowire
Kyrou had a goal and two assists in a 5-2 win over the Senators on Thursday.
Kyrou picked up a loose puck in the slot with his back to the net, and he spun around and beat Anton Forsberg with a quick wrist shot to push the scored to 4-2. It was an important game for Kyrou, who has struggled this season. "I was really happy with Jordan's game," said Blues coach Drew Bannister. "I mean, that's the way he has to play if we're going to move forward. Like, we need him at his best, and I thought tonight he was real good again, so that's a positive thing because I know he's been struggling a little bit with his confidence in his game. It was nice to see that he was back to his old self here tonight." Kyrou has 53 points, including 22 goals, and 210 shots in 70 games this season, but that's a far cry from his standard 73-75 point production.
