Caps Trade McMichael for Kyrou to Jump-Start the Top Six

Washington Capitals ship Connor McMichael, prospect Milton Gastrin, and a first-round pick to the St. Louis Blues in exchange for Jordan Kyrou, a move aimed at upgrading the club’s top-six offense. The panel weighs Kyrou’s proven 30-goal output and two-way game against the price and McMichael’s potential, plus the economics of an $8M AAV and the Capitals’ remaining center-depth questions. Kyrou adds speed and scoring but is a winger, so more moves could follow to complete a retooling of the roster.

Blues ship Kyrou to Capitals for McMichael, a Swedish prospect and a 16th overall pick

The St. Louis Blues traded winger Jordan Kyrou to the Washington Capitals for forward Connor McMichael, prospect Milton Gastrin and the Capitals’ No. 16 pick in Friday’s NHL Draft, while St. Louis adds four first-round selections (Nos. 11, 15, 16, 29). Kyrou, 28, had been the Blues’ leading goal scorer for three straight seasons but posted a down 2025-26; his contract runs through 2031 with an $8.125 million cap hit and no salary retained. McMichael, 25, had 14 goals and 46 points in 78 games this past season; Gastrin, 19, is a Swedish prospect projected as a bottom-six forward. The move signals a rebuild-or-retool approach for the Blues and a bid by the Capitals to add a dynamic winger for the present and future.
