Turcotte is not a bad pickup, as long as you’re not thinking of him as a future first line center. Those days are gone. IIRC he was compared to Bergeron in his draft year. Or maybe that was Hayton.
Anyway, I think he could still carve out a ceiling of Danault/Backlund career, with a Bonino-like floor.
He’s not a bad pick up when we will need centers of all kind (roster/AHL/junior) when Lindholm is gone.
