St. Louis Blues forward Jordan Kyrou has been the subject of trade rumors this off-season. The 27-year-old's full no-trade clause kicks in on July 1, so there have been plenty of questions about whether or not the Blues will move him before it starts. 

While there certainly is a chance that the Blues will keep Kyrou in St. Louis, he is generating interest. That includes from an Original Six club. 

During a recent episode of TSN Insider Trading, Pierre LeBrun reported that the Montreal Canadiens are interested in acquiring Kyrou from the Blues. 

"Montreal hopes not to be done," LeBrun said. "They'd like to add to their top six up front. It's been hard to find a No. 2 center, but they're opening that to perhaps a winger. Jordan Kyrou is a player that Montreal is among several teams that have shown interest in him."

Hearing that the Canadiens are interested in Kyrou is understandable. After getting back into the playoffs this spring, they are looking to get better and have proven that by acquiring defenseman Noah Dobson from the New York Islanders. Adding a star like Kyrou to their top six would only make them better. 

The Blues would need a significant return for them to truly consider moving Kyrou, whether it is to the Canadiens or another club.

One area on their roster that could use a boost is their defensive group, and they have been connected to New York Islanders blueliner Noah Dobson because of it.
