After parts of fourteen seasons in the National Hockey League, 2007 third overall pick Kyle Turris has retired.

Turris, a native of New Westminster (British Columbia), began his NHL career with the Phoenix (now Arizona) Coyotes, where he spent parts of four seasons, before being traded to Ottawa. He went on to play parts of seven seasons with the Senators, before moving on to Nashville and then Edmonton, where he played the last two years.

In 776 career games, the 33-year-old had 425 points (168 goals, 257 assists), 343 penalty minutes and was a minus-seven. Turris added 32 points (fourteen goals, eighteen assists) in 69 games during the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

Earlier this week, it was announced that Turris was joining the Coquitlam Express, a team in the BCHL, as a Special Advisor to the General Manager and a Development Coach. The move signaled that Turris' career was coming to a close, but on Friday, through the NHL Alumni Twitter account, the news of his retirement was made official.

Best of luck to Kyle in his new roles with Coquitlam and congratulations on a great NHL career.
