I don’t think it’s a stretch to say that the bottom two center spots for the Edmonton Oilers have been filled by underachievers.

Kyle Turris has proven to be a failure as a 3rd line center this season. He’s been in and out of the lineup once his replacements became healthy and, as of today, is playing on the wing as a sub-in for Josh Archibald on the 3rd line.
