Top Kyle Turris News

  • Kyle Turris: Ending playing career

    Turris will be a special advisor to the general manager for the BCHL's Coquitlam Express this year, signalling the end of the 33-year-old's playing career.

    Turris' playing career appears to be over after 776 games across 14 years. He'll finish with 168 goals and 257 assists. He was a first-round pick of the Coyotes in 2007 and also saw time with the Senators, Predators and Oilers. His new path looks set to take him into a front-office role.

  • Oilers' Kyle Turris: Elevated from minors

    Turris was recalled from AHL Bakersfield on Monday.

    Turris has played in just one NHL game since late January and has spent the last two months playing in the minors. The veteran's promotion comes as the Condors were eliminated from the Calder Cup playoffs. Even with Turris back on the roster, he will be hard-pressed to break into the lineup during the postseason.

  • Oilers' Kyle Turris: Lands on waivers

    Turris (undisclosed) was waived by Edmonton on Sunday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

    Turris has now been waived three times this season. The veteran forward has four points through 23 games on the year but he's missed 23 of the Oilers' last 25 games with various injuries. He could rejoin the big club in the near future if he goes unclaimed.

  • Oilers' Kyle Turris: Back on injured reserve

    Turris (undisclosed) was placed on long-term injured reserve Wednesday.

    Turris came off of injured reserve last week and played in a 5-2 loss to the Canadiens on Saturday, though he logged just 4:41 of ice time. The 32-year-old's placement on LTIR indicates he'll have to miss 24 days and 10 games, so he won't be back until April 3 at the earliest. Considering he's played limited minutes, this won't affect most fantasy managers' plans, though this will likely make it impossible for Oilers to move him out ahead of the March 21 trade deadline.

  • Oilers' Kyle Turris: Off injured reserve

    Turris (undisclosed) was removed from injured reserve Thursday.

    Turris has missed the last 14 games with a mystery injury but he could be back in the lineup Thursday against Chicago. The veteran forward has just four points while averaging 8:48 of ice time through 22 games this season. Once he's back in the lineup, he should slide into a bottom-six role.

  • Oilers' Kyle Turris: Lands on injured reserve

    Turris (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Thursday.

    Turris would have been an option to replace Zack Kassian (jaw) in the lineup, but both forwards went on injured reserve Thursday. Brendan Perlini or Tyler Benson will get the first chance to enter the lineup in a bottom-six role. Fantasy managers won't miss Turris much, as he has just four points in 22 games this season.

  • Oilers' Kyle Turris: Brought up to big club

    Turris was called up from the taxi squad Wednesday.

    Turris had been serving as extra forward depth in the last week, but he'll rejoin the big club's roster during the All-Star break. The 32-year-old has just four points in 22 contests this season.

  • Oilers' Kyle Turris: Loaned to taxi squad

    Turris was placed on loan to the taxi squad Wednesday.

    Turris takes over the spot on the taxi squad vacated by Ilya Konovalov, who was sent back to the AHL in a corresponding move. Turris thus drops off the active roster, which could signal Zach Hyman (COVID-19 protocols) will be ready for activation ahead of Thursday's clash with the Predators.

  • Oilers' Kyle Turris: Staying with big club

    Turris has cleared waivers, but he will be in the lineup Saturday versus the Flames, Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic reports.

    Turris clearing waivers will provide the Oilers with some roster flexibility down the line, but he's needed to play with Zack Kassian (illness) sidelined. The 32-year-old Turris will play on the third line Saturday.

  • Oilers' Kyle Turris: Lands on waivers

    Turris was waived by the Oilers on Friday.

    Turris has averaged 8:47 of ice time and logged four points this season. He recorded an assist in each of his last two games. The 32-year-old has not played since entering the NHL's COVID-19 protocols on Jan. 12.

  • Oilers' Kyle Turris: Clears protocols Thursday

    Turris has exited the NHL's COVID-19 protocols Thursday and he'll be eligible to play versus the Panthers.

    Turris has mainly played in a fourth-line role this season, so his return to action isn't likely to make an impact in fantasy. He missed just one game while in the protocols.

  • Oilers' Kyle Turris: Lands in virus protocols

    Turris entered the NHL's COVID-19 protocols Wednesday.

    The Oilers are off until Saturday versus Ottawa, so Turris may not be forced to miss any time despite entering the league's virus protocols Wednesday. Another update on Turris' status should surface prior to puck drop against the Senators.

  • Oilers' Kyle Turris: Assists in back-to-back outings

    Turris logged an assist in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Maple Leafs.

    Turris helped out on Brendan Perlini's first-period marker. The assist was Turris' second in as many games. The 32-year-old forward is up to four points, 19 shots on net, 12 hits and a minus-5 rating in 21 contests. Even with Connor McDavid and Derek Ryan in the COVID-19 protocols, Turris remains in a fourth-line role on the wing, so he'll have limited appeal in fantasy.

  • Oilers' Kyle Turris: Records helper in loss

    Turris notched an assist and three shots on goal in Monday's 4-1 loss to the Rangers.

    Turris snapped an eight-game point drought with the secondary helper on Ryan McLeod's tally. Through 20 games this season, Turris has just three points, 18 shots on net, 12 hits and a minus-6 rating. He's been limited to bottom-six minutes in a part-time role, so he's not much of a factor in fantasy.

  • Oilers' Kyle Turris: Returning Wednesday

    Turris (undisclosed) will rejoin the Oilers' lineup Wednesday versus the Blues, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.

    Turris missed a game Dec. 18 against the Kraken due to an undisclosed injury, but that'll be the extent of his absence after the league's holiday break was extended. The 32-year-old will play in his usual bottom-six role.

  • Oilers' Kyle Turris: Hurt, not playing Saturday

    Turris (undisclosed) was injured blocking a shot in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Blue Jackets, and he won't play Saturday against the Kraken, Jack Michaels of the Oilers Radio Network reports.

    Turris' injury comes at an awful time for the Oilers, who will play with only 17 skaters in the contest. His next chance to return is Monday versus the Ducks.

  • Oilers' Kyle Turris: Draws assist Sunday

    Turris produced an assist, two shots on goal and two hits in Sunday's 5-4 win over the Blues.

    Turris earned the secondary helper on Ryan McLeod's tally in the second period. The 32-year-old Turris doesn't score like he used to, as he's managed just two points and nine shots on net through 11 contests. He's averaged 8:27 of ice time per game this year, and he's prone to an occasional trip to the press box as a healthy scratch, so fantasy managers need not roster him.

  • Oilers' Kyle Turris: Tallies in Monday's win

    Turris scored a goal on two shots in Monday's 5-2 win over the Kraken.

    Turris added some insurance in the third period as the Oilers' fourth line made a rare contribution to the offense. It was the first goal and point of the year for Turris, who has averaged under nine minutes of ice time per game. The veteran forward has added six shots, three hits and a minus-2 rating. With such a limited role, the Canadian isn't likely to make enough of an impact to warrant fantasy attention.

  • Oilers' Kyle Turris: Staying with team

    Turris will not be reassigned to AHL Bakersfield despite clearing waivers Monday, Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic reports.

    While Turris is poised to remain on the 23-man roster for Opening Night against Vancouver on Wednesday, the fact that he cleared waivers will allow the Oilers to bury his contract in the minors if needed. If Turris can maintain his place on the roster, he should fill a bottom-six role but could still be utilized with the man advantage considering he has 119 career power-play points.
