So yes as you eventually found out Turris had a bunch of NHL experience, over 130 games.
It's also fascinating how when it's another player in another organization your mind immediately makes up excuses. Turris was given plenty of fair shakes, he just couldn't cut it and bounced up and down a bit. The Flames have kept Bennett up, the Coyotes put Turris down at times. Shoe on the other foot type deal here.. but I doubt if Bennett had seen some AHL time you'd be claiming he hasn't been given a fair shake.
