Turcotte (undisclosed) has been cleared to play ahead of Sunday's road clash against the Avalanche, per Zach Dooley. - Turcotte missed eight consecutive games to close out the regular season, but will be available for the Kings' first-round playoff series opener. He was cleared for action Saturday alongside Jeff Malott and Andrei Kuzmenko, but it was noted that all three likely won't be in the lineup together. Across 62 regular-season games this season, Turcotte has three goals, 14 points, 67 shots on net, 51 hits and 33 blocked shots. The 25-year-old center's lineup placement ahead of Sunday will likely be hinted at through line rushes during the Kings' next two days of practices. |

Turcotte (undisclosed) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday's clash in Calgary, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports. - Turcotte will sit out his eighth straight game with the injury. He has three goals and 11 assists across 62 regular-season games this season. The 25-year-old was selected fifth overall in 2019 and with 13 goals and 30 assists over 162 regular-season games across parts of five seasons in the NHL, Turcotte has to be considered a disappointment. |

Turcotte (undisclosed) won't play Tuesday versus the Canucks, Dennis Bernstein of The Fourth Period reports. - The Kings are using the same lineup as they did Monday when they won 5-3 over the Kraken to clinch a playoff spot.

Turcotte won't be in the lineup versus Seattle on Monday due to an undisclosed injury, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports. - According to head coach D.J. Smith, Turcotte is close to getting back in the lineup and hasn't been officially ruled out versus Vancouver on Tuesday. The 25-year-old Illinois native has appeared in just 62 games this season in which he has garnered three goals and 11 helpers. Even once cleared to play, Turcotte is far from a lock to play on a nightly basis and could serve as a healthy scratch periodically. |

Turcotte logged an assist, two shots on goal and two hits in Monday's 5-4 overtime win over the Blue Jackets. - Turcotte's helper was his first point in seven games since he returned from an upper-body injury that sidelined him prior to the Olympic break. The 25-year-old had been playing center, but the Kings' trade for Scott Laughton has pushed Turcotte onto the third-line wing for now. Turcotte may be able to do more there, especially with a defensively reliable center on his line. For the season, Turcotte has 13 points, 64 shots on net, 42 hits, 28 blocked shots and 21 PIM across 56 outings. |

Despite recording 15 shots in his last eight appearances, the 24-year-old center has been unable to put one into the net.

The 24-year-old has three goals and 12 points with 29 hits and 25 blocked shots over 49 games this season.

Turcotte is considered day-to-day due to an upper-body injury, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports Monday. - Turcotte didn't practice with the Kings ahead of Monday's scheduled matchup against the Blue Jackets that was ultimately postponed due to severe winter weather in the Columbus area. While it's not yet clear whether Turcotte will be available for Tuesday's game against Detroit, Kenny Connors will be recalled from AHL Ontario since Turcotte and Joel Edmundson are both day-to-day due to upper-body issues. |

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

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. - 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. |

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. |

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

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

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

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

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. |

Turcotte (upper body) will not be an option for Tuesday's home matchup versus Winnipeg, per Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site. - Turcotte will sit out his fifth consecutive game, and it's not clear if he's close to a return to the lineup.

He has eight goals and 23 points in 64 appearances in 2024-25. Turcotte is regarded as day-to-day, so he might still be an option for Saturday's home clash against Toronto. |

Turcotte will be out of the lineup Tuesday versus the Rangers due to an upper-body injury. - Turcotte has two points over his last three games, but it appears he's suffered an injury that will cost him at least one contest.

Turcotte scored a goal in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Blackhawks. - Turcotte doubled the Kings' lead 59 seconds after Trevor Moore's opener with a tip-in. This was his eighth goal of the campaign, but it was also the first time he found the back of the net since tallying two goals in a 5-1 win over the Canucks back on Jan. 16. Turcotte is having a career-best season in 2024-25, as he has racked up 22 points (eight goals, 14 assists) in 62 appearances after being limited to just 32 games in his first three years in the league. That said, he's not much of a fantasy option outside of leagues that reward physicality, and even in those contexts, he'd only be a realistic alternative as a streaming option in deep formats. |

Turcotte held a minus-2 rating but picked up an assist on the team's only goal during a 5-1 loss to the Blackhawks on Monday. - After Monday's game, Turcotte has now recorded just two points in his last 17 contests. However, he's playing on Los Angeles' top line alongside Anze Kopitar and Adrian Kempe, and he does have 21 points on the season.

Turcotte notched an assist and two shots on goal in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Canadiens. - Turcotte had a three-point effort versus the Canucks on Jan. 16, but he followed it up with an eight-game slump. That drought ended when he helped out on Brandt Clarke's third-period tally. Turcotte remains in a top-line role on paper, but his ice time is often in line with that of a fourth-liner. He has 20 points, 56 shots on net and a plus-12 rating over 46 appearances in his first full NHL campaign, but his usage makes him risky for fantasy managers at this point in his career. |

Turcotte has three goals and three assists over his last seven outings, and he's now at seven tallies, 12 helpers, 46 shots on net and a plus-15 rating through 37 appearances. He's firmly in the Kings' top nine, which comes with good opportunities as the team sticks with an 11-forward, seven-defensemen alignment. |

Turcotte scored a goal on three shots in Friday's 2-1 overtime win over the Jets. - Turcotte tallied at 4:39 of the second period, ended his seven-game goal drought. In that span, he racked up three assists. The 23-year-old continues to see even-strength minutes on the top line, but he hasn't elevated his offense to be in line with that assignment, and his ice time remains more like that of a middle-six forward. Turcotte has five goals, 11 helpers, 37 shots on net and a plus-12 rating through 34 appearances. |

Turcotte notched an assist in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Lightning. - Turcotte threaded a pass to Adrian Kempe for the game-winning goal in the third period.

Turcotte scored a goal in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Penguins. - Turcotte has earned four points over his last four games.

Turcotte generated one goal and an assist in Saturday's 5-1 win against the Rangers. - Turcotte made the most of his opportunity to play on the top line due to the absence of Trevor Moore (upper body). The 23-year-old Turcotte had one assist in five outings while averaging 10:47 of ice time from Nov. 30-Dec. 12 before logging 17:07 of action in Saturday's matchup.

Turcotte notched an assist and three shots on goal in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Islanders. - Turcotte has four points over his last eight outings. The Kings have been using seven defensemen and 11 forwards, but with Turcotte as a fourth-line option, he's had to rotate in rather that having steady shifts lately. The 23-year-old is at nine points, 23 shots on net, 11 hits and a plus-9 rating through 23 appearances, and he remains part of the second power-play unit despite not having a point in that situation in 2024-25. |

Turcotte scored Friday in a 2-1 win over Anaheim. - He scored short side off a pass from Alex Laferriere in the second period to knot the game 1-1. Turcotte is having a solid season, with two goals, six assists, 20 shots and a plus-11 rating in 19 games.

Turcotte notched an assist, two hits and four PIM in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Jets. - Turcotte has two helpers over five games since he returned from an upper-body injury that cost him five contests.

He's produced seven points, 18 shots on net, seven hits, five blocked shots, four PIM and a plus-10 rating over 18 appearances. Turcotte doesn't add a lot of non-scoring production, but there's enough depth offense here -- especially given his spot on the power play -- that he may be worth consideration in deep fantasy formats. |

Turcotte (upper body) is off injured reserve Saturday. - Turcotte, who has missed LA's past five games, wasn't expected to play Saturday versus Detroit, but it seems he's good to face the Red Wings after all.

Turcotte notched an assist in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Blackhawks. - Turcotte has been on the top line at even strength in recent games, but his helper Saturday was his first since Oct. 20. The 23-year-old's slump has cost him a power-play role. He's at five points, 14 shots on net and a plus-7 rating through 12 contests. Turcotte is good enough to stay in the lineup, but his role is likely to be limited regardless of which line he's listed on. |

Turcotte logged an assist and went plus-2 in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Ducks. - Turcotte extended his point streak to four games (one goal, three assists) when he set up a Mikey Anderson empty-netter in the final minute. The surge of offense has helped Turcotte claim a third-line role after he opened the season with limited minutes on the fourth line.
