Turris has obviously been super underwhelming. A lot of talk that Duchene is going to sign here since he loves Nashville. Turris gets $6 mill a season which is ridiculous for a fourth line centre (as he has played anyhow).
What should we do with him??
I think he needs to go, no matter what IMO, whether we sign Duchene or not. If we rely on him as a second line centre again we will not be winning a cup once again. Some say maybe he gets his act together this offseason but I just do not see it, he was not exactly great for us the prior season when we acquired him either. I personally think Duchene signs here regardless and plays second line centre for Granlund and possibly someone we trade Subban for. That would give us a deadly top 6 forwards, which we have never had really, its always been top 4 amazing defense which has not gotten us a cup to date.
So trade Subban for top 6 winger. That should not be hard. Moving Turris may prove to be difficult for getting any kind of value out of him. We may even have to include someone with him to get anything back. Or do something like Turris for a 3rd??
This should be an interesting offseason, Poile has decisions to make, and one of the biggest is what the heck to do with Turris.
