Player to watch vs. Blue Jackets: Jordan Kyrou
USA TODAY Sports

My St. Louis Blues player to watch against the Columbus Blue Jackets on Tuesday is forward Jordan Kyrou.

With one game left before the Blues hit the All-Star break, Kyrou can go out with a bang and prep himself up for a bigger second half.

A lot of the focus has been on Robert Thomas and Pavel Buchnevich on that top line, and rightfully do, but it's time for Kyrou to start piling up some goals, points with the Blues in the middle of a dogfight for the wild card race.

He is coming off a one-goal, two-assist performance in a 4-3 overtime win against the Los Angeles Kings and has five points (four goals, one assist) in six career games against Columbus.

Something says Kyrou has a big game tonight, and thanks to Blues legend Bernie Federko for the suggestion!
