I'd rather have Akil Thomas with the big club. 4 points in 7 games and he plays rough. Turcotte has 5 points in 20 games and does not play rough. It would be interesting to see Thomas play NHL playoff hockey.

I'm really surprised if Akil doesn't play in the offs because he was doing well.

Both play a similar game. Akil is a bit bigger. Turcotte a bit faster. Neither one of them would play much in the playoffs unless there’s an injury.

More importantly both will have bigger roles on the team next season.
