Marty Turco is hard to figure out. He was always a fun goalie to watch because he definitely wasn’t a form goaltender, but he was always seemingly the source of immeasurable frustration in Dallas. Everyone knows Marty’s name, but nobody would name him one of the top 3-5 goalies in the league today, or really at any point so far in his career. He was the back up to Ed Belfour and was controversially given the starting job when he moved on to Toronto. It’s tough to figure out Marty Turco’s legacy to Dallas or the game of hockey (and we can talk about it, because he’s been around for a decade) but it seems to be coming to an end in what is sort of an appropriate manner. On the one hand, he was able to put together a very solid 10 year career in Dallas. On the other hand, he is getting replaced by Alex Auld. Oof.
