Turris is being played like a shutdown C now. 30% OZ starts. There is no way he will be able to dig out from this hole unless he is getting McDavid's starts closer to 60%. But then...who takes those D zone starts instead? McDavid I guess? hehe.
Holland did not give Tippett the C that Tippett seemed to want. Turris will never ever be a solid defensive player. He's doomed in this role. He's a mediocre offensive player that needs sheltered ice time to not be a liability.
|
Worth noting too - McDavid and Draisaitl get all the tough matchups against the best players in the game and they're winning the battle there. Will they get scored on sometimes? Yes. Everyone does, and it's an easy story for chimps like Mark Spector to say they need to play a "200-foot game" because a check eluded them and scored, even though they're clearly putting up numbers well beyond what they're giving up.
The flip side of that is that our third and fourth lines are being eaten alive by third and fourth liners...that's a major problem. The stars are outscoring the opposition and keeping us in games, and the depth players are losing it for us.

With those D zone starts though, you get in bad situations when the other team is putting good guys out. Tippett has just had to accept this happening, he can't play McDavid and Drai every shift. Turris has 3 GA's against Ehlers. 2 against Tatar/Gallagher. Other 3 were against 3rd line quality guys, like Perrault, Sutter, Roussel, MacEwan, Beagle.
Any coach that wants to win should be very afraid of a guy like Turris having to play C against good offensive guys. We just have no choice but to let it happen a bunch of times every game. Even sending him out for a D zone faceoff against them. Turris should probably be a winger right now if he was on an actual good team.
