He takes on Montreal again, whose last game was the 5-0 loss to Ottawa which extended their three-game losing skid and handed them their fourth loss in five games.

Turcotte was a healthy scratch for the Kings' previous game but draws back into the lineup Tuesday as they take on Carolina. The 21-year-old has yet to pick up a point and is a -2 plus/minus through three games played so far with Los Angeles this season.
