player who played in the National Hockey League
(NHL) for the Buffalo Sabres
, New York Islanders
, Montreal Canadiens
, St. Louis Blues
, Dallas Stars
and the Colorado Avalanche
. Turgeon is the younger brother of former NHL player Sylvain Turgeon
.
as the 1st overall pick in the 1987 NHL Entry Draft
. Rick Jeanneret
, play-by-play announcer for the Sabres, coined the phrase "Ooh-la-la Pierre" for Pierre Turgeon.
Turgeon would quickly make an impact with the Sabres once he arrived. In his rookie season, he contributed a respectable 42 points (14 goals, 28 assists) during the 1987–88 NHL season helping the Sabres reach the playoffs for the first time in three years. His production increased to 88 points (34 goals, 54 assists) for the 1988–89 NHL season as he quickly became a fan favorite. In the 1989–90 NHL season, he became a star by scoring 106 points (40 goals, 66 assists) and playing in the 1990 NHL All-Star Game. Turgeon's production dipped a little bit in the 1990–91 NHL season to 79 points (32 goals, 47 assists), but he was still a solid performer.
After four plus years with the Sabres, Turgeon was traded on October 25, 1991, along with Benoît Hogue
, Uwe Krupp
and Dave McLlwain
, to the New York Islanders
for Pat LaFontaine
, Randy Wood
, Randy Hillier
, and future considerations. Turgeon's best season as an Islander was the 1992–93 season, where he scored 58 goals and 132 points and helped lead the Islanders to the Wales Conference Finals where they would lose to eventual Stanley Cup
Champion Montreal Canadiens
in five games. Along the way, the Islanders defeated the Washington Capitals
and upset the two time defending Stanley Cup champions Pittsburgh Penguins
.
The first round series, which the Islanders won in six games, is infamous for an on-ice incident. After scoring a series-clinching goal during game six at Nassau Coliseum, Turgeon was checked from behind by Dale Hunter
of the Capitals as he celebrated his goal. Turgeon suffered a separated shoulder and missed the ensuing series against the Penguins. Hunter received a then-record 21 game suspension for the hit. Turgeon returned for the semi-finals against the Montreal Canadiens after missing seven games. The Islanders bowed out of the playoffs after a hard-fought five game series, two of which went to overtime. After beating the Isles, the Canadiens went on to win the Stanley Cup.
During the failed 1994–95 season, General Manager
Don Maloney
decided to rebuild the team, which included trading Turgeon and Vladimir Malakhov
to the Montreal Canadiens for Kirk Muller
, Matthieu Schneider and Craig Darby
. He would be named captain
of the Canadiens for the 1995–96 NHL season after the departure of Mike Keane
to the Colorado Avalanche
in December 1995. During the 1995–96 season, Turgeon would nearly put up a 100 point season with 38 goals, 58 assists totaling 96 points & playing in the 1996 NHL All-Star Game. He was traded by Montreal to the St. Louis Blues
with Rory Fitzpatrick
and Craig Conroy
for Murray Baron
, Shayne Corson
, and a fifth round selection in the 1997 NHL Entry Draft
on October 29, 1996. He spent the next 5 seasons in St. Louis producing well as usual playing with the likes of Brett Hull
, Chris Pronger
, Al MacInnis
and Grant Fuhr
. He joined the Dallas Stars
as a free agent on July 1, 2001, and then the Colorado Avalanche
as a free agent on August 3, 2005. Turgeon took a year off during the 2004–05 lockout.
As an Islander, Turgeon was awarded the Lady Byng Memorial Trophy
in the 1992–93 NHL season. He participated in the NHL All-Star Game in 1990, 1993, 1994 and 1996.
On November 8, 2005, Turgeon became the 34th player in NHL history to score 500 goals.
On September 5, 2007, announced his retirement from the NHL.
