The acquisition of Kyle Turris is paying off for the Nashville Predators.
The center has found a home on a line with Craig Smith and Kevin Fiala, and the trio combined for three goals and four assists in Nashville's 5-3 win over the Bruins on Monday.
Since Turris was acquired by the Predators in a three-team trade with the Senators and Avalanche on Nov. 5, the line has combined for 32 points in 12 games (13 goals, 19 assists). Nashville owns a 9-2-1 record in those contests.
Turris has contributed 10 of those points, recording two goals and eight assists.
Meanwhile, in Ottawa, the Senators have gone 3-7-1 since the trade while Turris' replacement, Matt Duchene, has recorded one goal and one assist in 11 games.
The win over Boston pushed the defending Western Conference champions to 17-7-3, one point back of the Lightning and Jets for first overall in the league standings.
