Kyle Turris
Kyle Turris (born August 14, 1989) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey centre who played 14 seasons in the National Hockey League (NHL) from 2008 to 2022, appearing in 776 regular-season games and recording 168 goals and 257 assists for 425 points.[1] Drafted third overall by the Phoenix Coyotes in the 2007 NHL Entry Draft after a standout junior career in the British Columbia Hockey League where he earned Rookie of the Year honours in 2005–06 and MVP in 2006–07, Turris began his NHL tenure with Phoenix before being traded to the Ottawa Senators in 2011, where he achieved a career-high 27 goals in 2016–17 and helped the team reach the Eastern Conference Final.[1] He later joined the Nashville Predators in 2017 and the Edmonton Oilers in 2020, concluding his playing career with the latter.[1] Internationally, Turris represented Canada extensively, winning gold at the 2008 IIHF World Under-18 Championship and captaining the team to gold at the 2008 IIHF World Junior Championship, where he led all Canadian players in scoring with eight points (four goals, four assists) in seven games.[2] He also competed for Canada at the IIHF World Championships in 2014, 2018, and 2019, serving as team captain in the latter tournament and contributing a goal and an assist in a 3–0 preliminary-round win over the United States.[3][4] Following his retirement in 2022, when he joined the Coquitlam Express of the BCHL as a special advisor to the general manager and development coach, Turris transitioned into management and coaching roles.[5] In 2024, he completed a business degree from the University of Wisconsin, which he had begun in 2007 and finished online during his NHL career.[6] He subsequently interned with the Vancouver Canucks' business operations, became hockey director at the North Shore Winter Club in the Greater Vancouver Area, and joined Hockey Canada's senior management team at the under-17 level in 2024, assisting at the U17 national development camp.[6]Early life
Family background
Kyle Turris was born on August 14, 1989, in New Westminster, British Columbia, Canada.[7] His father, Bruce Turris, is a Canadian Lacrosse Hall of Fame inductee (2004) and former professional player in the Western Lacrosse Association, where he amassed 882 points over 414 senior games with teams like the Vancouver Burrards and Coquitlam Adanacs.[8][9] Bruce influenced Kyle's competitive drive from an early age, incorporating lacrosse drills into his hockey development, such as backyard stickhandling exercises with the family dog to improve agility and puck protection.[10] His mother, Vikky Turris, was a standout high school sprinter at New Westminster Senior Secondary, competing in events like the 100m, 200m, 400m, hurdles, and long jump; she supported the family by managing Kyle's nutrition from age 14, preparing protein-focused meals to fuel his athletic pursuits.[10][11] The Turris family embodied an athletic heritage, with both parents instilling strong values of respect, skill-building, and multi-sport participation in their only child.[11] Growing up in New Westminster—a sports-oriented community in Greater Vancouver—Kyle was immersed in a household blending lacrosse and hockey traditions, fostering his early exposure to competitive environments through informal play and structured training.[10]Youth hockey development
Kyle Turris first encountered organized hockey at local rinks in New Westminster, British Columbia, where he grew up, beginning play around age four or five with encouragement from his family.[8][10] His father, Bruce Turris, a lacrosse Hall of Famer, played a key role in fostering his early interest by coaching him in both hockey and lacrosse from a young age.[12][8] From ages four to 14, Turris participated in minor hockey associations in British Columbia, primarily through the North Shore Winter Club in North Vancouver, progressing from house league to select teams.[7][2] He represented a minor ice hockey team from North Vancouver at the 2002 Quebec International Pee-Wee Hockey Tournament, a prestigious youth event.[7] By age 14, in the 2003-04 season, he played for the North Shore Winter Club U15 A1 team in the Pacific Coast Amateur Hockey League (PCBHL), gaining experience in competitive minor play.[7] Turris earned early recognition for his skating speed and playmaking abilities during his youth years, standing out in tyke and novice divisions where his father focused on individual skill development during games.[11] His selection to provincial-level teams, such as the PCBHL U15 squad, highlighted his potential as a skilled center with strong vision on the ice.[7] These attributes were influenced by his lacrosse background, which emphasized creativity and quick transitions transferable to hockey.[8][10] His training regimen, shaped by his father's athletic background, stressed discipline, fundamentals, and multi-sport exposure, including lacrosse basics to build agility and hand-eye coordination.[12][8] Around ages 14 to 15, Turris transitioned toward more competitive youth leagues, participating in tryouts and regional tournaments that prepared him for higher levels.[7][11]Playing career
Junior career
Turris joined the Burnaby Express of the British Columbia Hockey League (BCHL) for the 2005–06 season at the age of 16.[13] In his rookie campaign, he recorded 72 points, consisting of 36 goals and 36 assists, over 57 regular-season games.[13] For his performance, Turris was awarded the Bruce Allison Memorial Trophy as the Coastal Conference Rookie of the Year.[14] His contributions helped the Express secure the BCHL championship, advancing them to the 2006 Royal Bank Cup, Canada's national Junior A finals.[15] In the playoffs, including the Royal Bank Cup, Turris tallied 26 points (12 goals and 14 assists) in 14 games.[1] During the 2006–07 BCHL season, Turris elevated his production, amassing 107 points (59 goals and 48 assists) in 56 games, leading the league in scoring.[13] Despite the Express finishing fourth in the standings and losing in the first round of the playoffs to the Nanaimo Clippers, Turris's standout play earned him the RBC Financial Group Junior A Player of the Year award.[16] At the 2007 NHL Entry Draft, Turris was selected third overall by the Phoenix Coyotes, becoming the highest-drafted player from the BCHL and Canadian Junior A hockey at the time.[1][17] Following the draft, Turris opted to pursue NCAA hockey at the University of Wisconsin rather than sign an immediate professional contract with Phoenix.[18][19]College career
Turris enrolled at the University of Wisconsin–Madison for the 2007–08 academic year, joining the Wisconsin Badgers men's ice hockey team as a freshman in the Western Collegiate Hockey Association (WCHA).[20] During the season, he centered the top line and led the team in scoring with 11 goals and 24 assists for 35 points in 36 games.[21] For his performance, Turris was selected to the WCHA All-Rookie Team and the WCHA Third All-Star Team.[7] As a key offensive contributor, Turris helped drive the Badgers' team dynamics and their postseason push, including a quarterfinal sweep of Denver in the WCHA playoffs to advance to the Final Five.[22] The Badgers earned an at-large bid to the 2008 NCAA Tournament as the No. 3 seed in the Midwest Regional, where Turris factored into their first-round upset victory over the No. 2 seed Denver by a 6–2 score before a 3–2 loss to North Dakota in the regional final.[23] While at Wisconsin, Turris began coursework toward a Bachelor of Business Administration degree, managing the rigorous demands of NCAA Division I hockey alongside his studies.[24] After the conclusion of the Badgers' season, he signed a three-year entry-level contract with the Phoenix Coyotes on March 31, 2008, forgoing his remaining college eligibility to turn professional.[20]Phoenix Coyotes
Following his junior and college career, Turris signed a three-year entry-level contract with the Phoenix Coyotes on March 31, 2008.[7] He immediately joined the NHL roster, making his debut on April 3, 2008, against the Dallas Stars, where he played in each of the team's final three regular-season games, recording one assist in three appearances.[25] In the 2008-09 season, Turris transitioned to a full-time NHL role as a 19-year-old checking-line center, appearing in 63 games for the Coyotes while logging eight games with their AHL affiliate, the San Antonio Rampage, where he tallied four goals and three assists.[13] His rookie NHL output included eight goals and 12 assists for 20 points, though he struggled with physical play and a minus-15 rating amid Phoenix's rebuilding efforts following years of poor performance and financial instability.[26] The following year, 2009-10, Turris was assigned full-time to San Antonio to develop further, leading the Rampage with 24 goals and 39 assists for 63 points in 76 games, helping the team secure a playoff spot in the AHL's Western Conference.[13] However, San Antonio was swept in the first round by the Houston Aeros, and Turris did not appear in those games.[27] Turris returned to the Coyotes for the 2010-11 season, evolving into a more effective two-way offensive contributor on the third line, notching 11 goals and 14 assists for 25 points in 65 games while adding two minor AHL stints totaling one assist in two games.[13] His improved skating and decision-making supported Phoenix's surprise run to the Western Conference Finals, though the team ultimately lost to the eventual Stanley Cup champion Boston Bruins.[28] After a slow start to 2011-12 with zero points in six games, Turris's tenure with the Coyotes ended on December 17, 2011, when he was traded to the Ottawa Senators in exchange for prospect David Rundblad and Ottawa's second-round pick in the 2012 NHL Draft.[1] Over parts of four seasons, Turris played 137 NHL games for Phoenix, accumulating 46 points.[26]Ottawa Senators
Turris was acquired by the Ottawa Senators from the Phoenix Coyotes on December 17, 2011, in exchange for defenseman David Rundblad and a second-round pick in the 2012 NHL Entry Draft.[29] In his first partial season with Ottawa, he appeared in 49 games, recording 12 goals and 17 assists for 29 points, establishing himself as a reliable two-way center amid the team's injury challenges.[26] Following this debut, Turris signed a five-year, $17.5 million contract extension with the Senators on August 29, 2012, securing his role through the 2016-17 season.[29] Over his tenure in Ottawa, which spanned parts of seven seasons and 407 games, Turris emerged as a cornerstone of the franchise, amassing 117 goals and 157 assists for 274 points.[13] His breakout came in the 2014-15 season, when he posted a career-high 64 points (24 goals, 40 assists) in 82 games, leading the team in scoring and anchoring the top line alongside wingers like Clarke MacArthur and Bobby Ryan.[30] Turris excelled as a power-play specialist, contributing 11 power-play goals that year and ranking among the NHL's top centers in faceoff wins, while his defensive reliability earned him consistent top-six minutes. In the 2016-17 season, he recorded 55 points (27 goals, 28 assists) in 78 games, ranking third on the team in scoring.[26] Turris's playoff contributions were particularly memorable during his Ottawa years. In the 2012 Eastern Conference Semifinals against the New York Rangers, he tallied 3 points (1 goal, 2 assists) in 7 games, including an overtime winner in Game 4 that helped extend the series. Five years later, in the 2017 Stanley Cup Playoffs, Turris recorded 10 points (4 goals, 6 assists) over 19 games as the Senators advanced to the Eastern Conference Finals for the first time since 2007, defeating the Rangers in the second round with another overtime goal in Game 5. His clutch performances underscored his growth into a top-line center capable of elevating the team in high-stakes situations. Turris's time with the Senators ended on November 5, 2017, when he was traded to the Nashville Predators as part of a three-team deal involving the Colorado Avalanche, after just 11 games into the 2017-18 season. Over 407 regular-season games in Ottawa, he left as one of the team's most productive forwards during a period of rebuilding and resurgence.[13]Nashville Predators
On November 5, 2017, Turris was acquired by the Nashville Predators in a three-team trade involving the Ottawa Senators and Colorado Avalanche, after which he immediately signed a six-year, $36 million contract extension beginning with the 2018–19 season, positioning him as a key top-line center alongside Ryan Johansen and Filip Forsberg.[31] In his first partial season with Nashville during 2017–18, Turris contributed 13 goals and 29 assists for 42 points in 65 regular-season games, helping the Predators secure the top seed in the Central Division and advance to the Western Conference Final, where he added three assists in 13 playoff games.[26] The 2018–19 season proved challenging, as injuries including a foot ailment and rib issue limited him to 55 games with seven goals and 16 assists for 23 points; despite the setbacks, he returned for all six playoff games against the Dallas Stars, scoring once and assisting once in a first-round loss.[26] Under new head coach John Hynes in 2019–20, Turris transitioned to a more versatile role emphasizing secondary scoring and penalty-kill duties, logging increased shorthanded time while posting nine goals and 22 assists for 31 points in 62 games.[32][26] The Predators qualified for the expanded playoff format amid the COVID-19 pandemic, but Turris recorded no points in four round-robin games as Nashville failed to advance beyond the preliminary stage. Persistent injuries and declining production—totaling 96 points in 182 games over three full seasons—coupled with salary cap constraints, led the Predators to buy out the remaining four years of Turris's contract on October 7, 2020, resulting in an $2 million annual cap penalty through 2027–28.[33][26][34]Edmonton Oilers
Following a buyout from the Nashville Predators in October 2020, Turris signed a two-year, $3.3 million contract with the Edmonton Oilers on October 9, 2020, with an average annual value of $1.65 million.[35] Turris's time with the Oilers spanned two seasons, but his final NHL year in 2021-22 was particularly limited, as he appeared in just 23 games, recording 1 goal and 3 assists for 4 points while averaging 8:37 of ice time per game in a bottom-six center role.[26] Injuries played a significant role, including an undisclosed issue that sidelined him for 14 games in February and March 2022, followed by placement on long-term injured reserve (LTIR) due to a recurring back problem; he cleared waivers on March 21, 2022, but did not return to the lineup.[36][37] Despite his reduced production and ice time, Turris contributed to the Oilers' depth during their regular-season push to a third-place finish in the Pacific Division and a playoff berth, offering veteran presence in the bottom six amid ongoing recovery from back issues that had lingered from his Nashville tenure. The organization provided support for his rehabilitation, allowing him to remain with the team while managing his health. He also reunited with former Ottawa Senators teammate Cody Ceci, who had joined Edmonton in 2020, fostering familiarity in the locker room. Turris played his final NHL game on March 5, 2022, against the Montreal Canadiens, logging 4:41 of ice time in a 5-2 loss.[38]Retirement
Kyle Turris announced his retirement from the National Hockey League on August 17, 2022, at age 33, concluding a 14-season professional career that spanned 776 regular-season games and amassed 425 points, consisting of 168 goals and 257 assists.[39] The decision came after a challenging period marked by persistent injuries that eroded his performance and passion for the game, particularly in his final seasons with the Edmonton Oilers.[40] The primary catalyst for his retirement was a series of cumulative injuries beginning around the 2018-19 season, including recurring back problems that severely restricted his mobility, on-ice effectiveness, and overall enjoyment of hockey.[40] These issues intensified over the subsequent three years, prompting Turris to step away to safeguard his long-term health.[41] In his retirement statement, Turris conveyed deep gratitude for his NHL journey, crediting the league, teammates, and fans for enabling a fulfilling career while reflecting on the personal growth and community contributions it afforded him.[40] He also prioritized family, expressing a desire to be more present for his wife and three children—Teddie, Beckett, and Cooper—after years of travel and physical demands that strained home life.[40] Immediately following the announcement, Turris relocated to Vancouver to emphasize family time and focus on rehabilitating from his injuries, laying the groundwork for eventual involvement in hockey's off-ice aspects without rushing into new professional commitments.[42]International play
Junior international competitions
Turris earned his initial spots on Canada's junior national teams through Hockey Canada selection camps, where his standout performance in the British Columbia Hockey League (BCHL) with the Burnaby Express drew attention from evaluators.[43] His first major international appearance came at the 2006 Ivan Hlinka Memorial Tournament, an under-18 event, where he suited up for Canada alongside future NHL talents. Playing four games, Turris recorded one goal and one assist for two points as Canada claimed gold with a perfect 4-0-0-0 record, defeating Russia 5-2 in the championship game.[44][45] The following year, Turris represented Canada at the 2007 IIHF World Under-18 Championship in Finland, contributing offensively in a tournament that tested the team's depth. Over six games, he tallied three goals and two assists for five points, helping Canada reach the quarterfinals before a 3-2 overtime loss to the United States resulted in a fourth-place finish. His play highlighted his emerging two-way capabilities, including strong defensive zone work and penalty killing.[46][45] Later in 2007, Turris participated in the Canada-Russia Super Series, an eight-game under-20 exhibition series commemorating the 1972 Summit Series. He led Canada in scoring with seven goals (tied for series lead overall) and nine points across the eight games, helping secure a 7-1 series victory over Russia.[45] Turris capped his junior international career at the 2008 IIHF World Under-20 Championship (World Juniors) in the Czech Republic, selected after impressing at Hockey Canada's summer development camp. As an 18-year-old rookie on a stacked roster featuring players like John Tavares and P.K. Subban, he centered a potent top line and led Canada in scoring with four goals and four assists for eight points in seven games. His contributions, including an assist in the 3-2 overtime gold-medal win over Sweden, were instrumental in securing Canada's fourth consecutive title and extending their winning streak to 21 games. This performance solidified Turris's reputation as a reliable two-way center, boosting his profile ahead of his NHL transition.[13][2]Senior international tournaments
Turris made his senior international debut for Team Canada at the 2014 IIHF World Championship in Minsk, Belarus, where he served as an alternate captain and recorded 3 goals and 3 assists for 6 points in 8 games as Canada finished sixth overall after a quarterfinal loss to Finland.[47] In that tournament, he contributed offensively with timely scoring. After a three-year absence from the event, Turris joined the Canadian roster midway through the 2018 IIHF World Championship in Copenhagen and Herning, Denmark, following his early playoff exit with the Nashville Predators. Limited to 4 games due to the late addition, he tallied 1 goal and 1 assist for 2 points, helping Canada reach the quarterfinals before a 3-2 loss to Switzerland resulted in a fifth-place finish.[48] His goal came in a 5-4 quarterfinal-qualifying win over Russia. Turris returned as captain for the 2019 IIHF World Championship in Bratislava and Košice, Slovakia, where he led Team Canada with strong leadership in a middle-six role focused on secondary scoring and penalty killing. Over 10 games, he achieved a career-high 4 goals and 6 assists for 10 points, tying for fifth in Canadian scoring, as the team advanced to the quarterfinals but fell 5-4 in overtime to Finland before securing seventh place with wins in the relegation round.[49] Notable performances included a goal and assist in a 3-0 shutout victory over the United States during preliminary play, and a three-point game (two goals and an assist) against Great Britain. Throughout his senior international career, Turris was valued as a reliable two-way center, averaging over 16 minutes of ice time per game while contributing to Canada's defensive structure and faceoff wins, with a tournament-best faceoff percentage in 2018.[7]Post-retirement activities
Coaching roles
Following his retirement from professional hockey in 2022, Kyle Turris entered coaching by joining the Coquitlam Express of the British Columbia Hockey League (BCHL) as a player development coach and special advisor to the general manager, roles that allowed him to mentor young players drawing from his NHL experience.[50][51] In 2024, Turris served as an assistant coach for Canada's National Men's Under-18 Team at the IIHF U18 World Championship in Espoo, Finland, where the team captured the gold medal by defeating the United States 6–4 in the final.[45] His contributions helped guide the squad through a tournament that included victories over Latvia in the quarterfinals and Sweden in the semifinals.[52] Turris also took on video coaching duties for Team Canada Red at the 2024 World Under-17 Hockey Challenge in Surrey, British Columbia, and the 2024 Hlinka Gretzky Cup in Edmonton, Alberta, supporting the development of prospects in these international youth competitions.[2] Beyond these roles, Turris has been actively involved in local youth hockey programs in British Columbia, including coaching his sons' teams at the minor hockey level.[53] This grassroots engagement complements his junior and international work, focusing on foundational skill-building for players under 18.[54]Administrative positions
In 2024, Kyle Turris joined Hockey Canada's Program of Excellence management group as a senior manager for the under-17 national program, where he oversees aspects of the U17 development camps and contributes to the overall guidance of the program for the 2024-25 season.[55] His responsibilities in this role include assisting with coach and player selections, supporting coaching staffs, and providing input during camps and tournaments, such as the 2024 U17 World Challenge.[55] Turris also serves in a management capacity for the under-18 program, helping to prepare teams for events like the IIHF U18 World Championship.[55] In 2025, he continued in this role as part of the management group for Canada's National Men's Under-18 Team at the IIHF U18 World Championship, where the team won gold by defeating Sweden 7–0 in the final.[56][57] In January 2025, Turris was appointed as a leading member of Hockey Canada's newly formed National Team Athlete Committee, a group of eight current and former athletes elected to represent high-performance players across men's, women's, and para hockey.[58] The committee meets quarterly to provide athlete input and recommendations on key issues affecting national team participants.[58] Turris's responsibilities on the committee encompass advising on player welfare, selection policies, diversity and inclusion initiatives, and funding for high-performance programs, while also representing athletes in matters related to international bodies like the IIHF.[58] Eligibility for the committee requires recent participation in IIHF or World Para Ice Hockey world championships, aligning with Turris's background as a two-time gold medalist in international junior competitions.[58] In October 2025, Turris was named to Hockey Canada's Program of Excellence management group for the 2025–26 season, continuing his work with under-17 and under-18 programs.[59] Beyond Hockey Canada, Turris has provided consulting services to NHL teams on player development, including an advisory internship with the Vancouver Canucks during the 2023-24 season.[6]Personal life
Family
Turris is married to Julie Turris, whom he met while playing one season of college hockey for the University of Wisconsin in 2007–08.[41] The couple has three children together: sons Beckett (born circa 2014) and Cooper, and daughter Teddie.[41][60] Throughout Turris's professional career, the family relocated several times to accommodate his team changes, including a move from Ottawa to Nashville in November 2017 after his trade to the Predators, followed by a relocation to Edmonton in October 2020 when he signed as a free agent with the Oilers.[61] Following his retirement from the NHL in April 2022, the family settled in North Vancouver, British Columbia, where they are building a permanent home.[41] Julie has been a key source of support for Turris during these frequent transitions, helping the family adapt to new cities and maintain stability amid the uncertainties of professional hockey.[62] The Turris family has generally kept a low public profile, focusing on private life despite the demands of Kyle's career in the spotlight.[63]Philanthropy and community involvement
Kyle Turris has been actively involved in philanthropy throughout his career and post-retirement, with a particular emphasis on health-related causes and promoting accessibility to hockey for underserved youth. Motivated by supporting families like that of young Mason, diagnosed with hypoplastic left heart syndrome—a rare congenital heart defect that required multiple open-heart surgeries and consideration of a transplant at the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO)—Turris frequently visited patients and families at the hospital during his time with the Ottawa Senators.[64][65] He supported CHEO's initiatives by spending time with children, including baking with patients during a 2023 return visit to Ottawa, contributing to the hospital's efforts in pediatric care.[66] A cornerstone of Turris's charitable work has been his longstanding partnership with the Capital City Condors, a hockey program in Ottawa for children and adults with developmental disabilities. Serving as the team's honorary captain for over five years starting in 2012, even continuing the role after his 2017 trade to Nashville, Turris attended practices, games, and banquets, often prioritizing these commitments immediately after Senators games.[67][68] This involvement extended to broader health causes, including raising awareness for Crohn's and colitis disease through events in 2015.[69] Post-retirement, Turris expanded his community efforts nationally, participating in a 2025 charity hockey tournament in Surrey, British Columbia, that raised over $1 million for the Canucks Autism Network, supporting inclusive sports programs for individuals with autism spectrum disorder.[70] Turris has organized and supported community events to enhance hockey accessibility, particularly for underprivileged and special needs youth. He co-hosted the annual Kyle Turris Capital City Condors Golf Invitational, which by 2025 reached its 11th edition and generated significant funds for the Condors program through sponsorships, auctions, and participant contributions.[71] In British Columbia, where he resides post-retirement, Turris has led youth hockey clinics and engaged in local initiatives, including visits to the Roger Neilson Children's Hospice to interact with children facing serious illnesses.[72][73] His efforts align with broader advocacy for diversity and mental health in sports, reflected in the naming of the British Columbia Hockey League's Kyle Turris Community Award, which honors junior players for off-ice contributions starting in the 2024-25 season.Career statistics
