Nashville Predators general manager David Poile pulled the trigger on another massive trade in picking up center Kyle Turris from the Colorado Avalanche. The Predators also signed Turris to a six-year, $36-million extension keeping him with the team thru the 2022-23 season. In exchange the Preds send defenseman Samuel Girard, forward Vladislav Kamenev and a 2018 2nd round draft pick. The Preds picked up Turris after he was dealt to Colorado from Ottawa in what equates to a three team deal. The 28-year old Turris has 3 goals and 6 assists this season. He led Ottawa scoring a career-high 27, while adding 28 assists for 55 points. In 7 NHL seasons Turris has 117 goals and 157 assists. Turris was picked third overall in the 2007 NHL Draft.
