The 24-year-old also saw a season-high 17:22 of ice time Wednesday since the Kings were missing four of their regular forwards. Turcotte is now at three goals, seven helpers, 41 shots on net, 21 blocked shots, 17 hits and a minus-4 rating over 41 appearances this season.

Nabs helper in shootout win Turcotte notched an assist and blocked two shots in Saturday's 5-4 shootout win over the Wild.

Impact Turcotte ended an 11-game point drought with the helper. The 24-year-old has gotten a boost in ice time since the Kings traded Phillip Danault to the Canadiens prior to the holiday break. That has opened up a third-line role for Turcotte, who now has seven points, 37 shots on net, 20 blocked shots, 17 PIM, 16 hits and a minus-7 rating over 39 appearances. While the third-line job is his for now, he'll need to do more with it than he has recently to avoid potentially losing the spot if the Kings go shopping ahead of the trade deadline.

One of each in win Turcotte scored a goal on three shots, added an assist, went plus-2 and logged two hits in Saturday's 6-0 win over the Blackhawks.

Impact Turcotte earned his first multi-point effort of the season and has three points over his last five games. He'll often struggle to impact the game from a fourth-line role, but he's done enough lately to fend off Samuel Helenius and Jeff Malott for the last spot in the lineup. Turcotte is at two goals, six points, 22 shots on net, nine blocked shots, eight hits, 15 PIM and a minus-1 rating over 27 appearances.

Gets goal after scratch Turcotte scored a goal on three shots, blocked two shots and added two PIM in Friday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Ducks.

Impact Turcotte was scratched Monday versus the Senators, and it may have sparked his play. The 24-year-old snapped his 11-game point drought upon his return to the lineup, and he earned 13:27 of ice time. The Kings have struggled to get much out of their centers this year, with Turcotte and Phillip Danault in particular struggling. Turcotte is at one goal, three assists, 19 shots on net, 13 PIM and a minus-3 rating while primarily playing on the fourth line through 23 appearances.

Scratched amid slump Turcotte was a healthy scratch in Monday's 2-1 win over the Senators.

Impact Turcotte entered Monday on an 11-game point drought and didn't receive the chance to end the slump. His ice time has been trending down -- he saw just 5:33 in Friday's game against Boston. While Turcotte hasn't been able to make the most of limited minutes this season, his replacement Monday, Samuel Helenius, logged just 3:25 of ice time. That could lead to an open competition for the last forward spot in the lineup until one of those two players impresses head coach Jim Hiller.

Slings helper in shootout win Turcotte provided an assist and five PIM in Wednesday's 6-5 shootout win over the Golden Knights.

Impact Turcotte's penalty was a major for boarding in the second period that led to two goals for the Golden Knights. Aside from that, the 24-year-old looked effective in a fourth-line role. He's averaging just 7:09 of ice time per game through two contests, adding one shot on net, two blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating. He'll need to continue being impressive in a limited role to keep Samuel Helenius in the press box, though Turcotte also has enough scoring upside to move up the lineup when injuries occur.

Produces two points Turcotte scored a power-play goal, dished an assist and logged three hits in Tuesday's 6-5 win over the Kraken.

Impact With Anze Kopitar resting and Quinton Byfield (upper body) out, Turcotte received a bump up to the top line at even strength. The 24-year-old Turcotte made the most of that move, as he and Adrian Kempe assisted on each other's goals. This was Turcotte's third game back from an upper-body injury. The forward is now at nine goals, 25 points, 77 shots on net, 44 hits, 30 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating through 67 appearances.

Expected to return Saturday Turcotte (upper body) is ready to return for Saturday's game against Colorado, per Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site.

Impact Turcotte was last in the lineup March 23. He has eight goals, 23 points, 38 hits and 27 blocks in 64 outings in 2024-25. Jeff Malott might be a healthy scratch versus the Avalanche as a result of Turcotte's return.

Slated to miss another game Turcotte (upper body) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Ducks, Russell Morgan of Hockey Royalty reports.

Impact Although the 24-year-old will miss a ninth consecutive game Thursday, head coach Jim Hiller said after the team's morning skate that Turcotte is "very close" to returning to action. As a result, it seems possible that he'll be in the mix to return against Colorado on Saturday. Turcotte has made 64 appearances this year, logging eight goals, 15 assists, 38 hits, 27 blocked shots and 20 PIM while averaging 11:46 of ice time.

Progressing in recovery Turcotte (upper body) returned to the ice for practice Sunday, but he remains without a timetable to return to game action, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.

Impact While head coach Jim Hiller said that it was "progress" to see Turcotte on the ice for practice Sunday, Hiller said that he "won't expect him anytime soon." The Kings appear to be on track for a playoff berth, so it wouldn't be surprising to see the team exercise caution with Turcotte over the final week and a half of the regular season. However, if he's able to appear in at least some games before the postseason, it could help him regain his conditioning.

APRIL 6, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Unlikely to return Saturday Turcotte (upper body) is unlikely to play in Saturday's home matchup with the Oilers, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.

Impact It'll be the seventh straight game Turcotte's missed as he continues to nurse an upper-body injury. The 24-year-old forward has eight goals and 23 points in a career-high 64 games this season. Turcotte's next chance to suit up will come Monday when the Kings host Seattle.

APRIL 5, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Won't make trip Thursday Turcotte (upper body) will not travel with the team for Thursday's clash with Utah, John Hoven of SiriusXM NHL Network Radio reports.

Impact Turcotte has already missed the Kings' last five games due to his upper-body issue and will now be sidelined for at least one more. It's been a decent campaign for the 24-year-old center, having generated eight goals, 15 assists and 75 shots in 64 appearances for the Kings this year. Samuel Helenius figures to remain in the lineup while Turcotte is on the shelf.

Still sidelined Turcotte (upper body) will not be an option for Tuesday's home matchup versus Winnipeg, per Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site.

Impact Turcotte will sit out his fifth consecutive game, and it's not clear if he's close to a return to the lineup. Tanner Jeannot (undisclosed) is also out Tuesday and Alex Lafferiere (illness) is a game-time decision, so the Kings may have to utilize 11 forwards and seven blueliners again.

Still sidelined Turcotte (upper body) will remain sidelined against the Sharks on Sunday, per Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site.

Impact Turcotte will miss his fourth consecutive game, with his next chance to return to the lineup coming Tuesday versus the Jets. The left-shot forward has produced eight goals, 15 assists and a plus-8 rating over 64 appearances in 2024-25.
