Confirmed with Link: Blackhawks sign Teuvo Teravainen

[Kentti]

He shot twice in Shootout?

How did TT play? Anything good to report?

Unfortunately I wasn't able to see the game today but from reports he did shoot twice, missing the first time and scoring the second time a game winner that is seen at the end of the highlight reel.

Teräväinen ei näyttänyt käyvän kentällä ottelun lopussa? Jokerien ykkönen nähdäkseni Lahti-Tyrväinen-Hardt. Penkillä silti. #Liiga #Jokerit

...but what does it mean? Google translate left much to be desired

I think it might be saying something happened to him at the end of the game and he didn't look good but came back to the bench?

 

[Kentti]

TT played today again. No points. Made great passes but his linemates can't score the life of them. Jokerit won Tappara 1 - 2.

"Teräväinen didn't play during the final moments? The 1st line seemed to be Lahti-Tyrväinen-Hardt. He still was on the bench."

I guess they wanted to have a defensive center during the hectic moments.

Kentti and Kennel- should we be concerned with TT's lack of points thus far for Jokerit?

Seems like he did great in ET- and now he is silent!

Any insight as to why?

This thread should be merged with the prospect talk thread.

Getting used to playing with scrubs after having Kane on his wing? I wouldn't be concerned. If he otherwise plays well and creating chances the points will come. Remember, he is still very young and centering the top line of a team many expect to do well. And it's been, what, 2 games since he came back? Patience. I am afraid that TT having made such an impression this camp, people will be expecting him to have at least a point if not two each game. Which is unrealistic.

 

[Kennel]

In my opinion he's been playing better than during European Trophy. He has given enough good passes for 3-5 goals and hit the post once or twice. He could shoot more often instead of trying to give that one extra pass but otherwise I'm not worried at all. Let's wait until he has played at least ten games.

 

[zytz]

From what I hear Jokerit has trouble finishing. If that's the case TT may not dazzle as expected.

 

[HockeySauce]

TT will still dazzle, the point just won't be there.

 

[Bubba88]

as far as I've heard and read, he sets up his teammates good enough and plays good. It's just his teammates can't score. Points will come as will some bad games.

Have you watched TT/Jokerit - whole games- or just the Hilites?

thanks

I've seen 7 regular season games (including 3 with Teuvo) and 6 training matches although I haven't been 100% focused during some of them.

Understatement of the year. When your forwards are being outscored by your defenseman, that usually don't score, you know your team has problems. TT's linemate Janne Lahti scored 37 goals two season's ago but it seems KHL ruined him as he can't score anymore.

I think he is playing today. Hopefully we will have updates soon.

yeah he is. Jokerit is losing 0-2 after first period. Teräväinen playing as 1st line center.

Jokerit lost 0-4 at home so naturally no points for TT.

Highlights from today's TT's game: http://www.nelonenpro.fi/videot/media/584344

TT still pointless, a bad game from the whole team.

 

[Kennel]

Yep, terrible effort by the team and Teuvo as well. He failed several easy passes and wasn't able to produce a lot despite tons of power play time. Some said that he looked tired which might be true. At least he wasn't any worse than his teammates.

Next games on Friday and Saturday, better to forget this one as soon as possible.

From twitter (and google translate) it sounds like he scored today. I think he might have done it at the end of regulation time to tie the game.

Since this signing is in the past, let's go back to the prospect thread for TT related stuff.
