Teuvo Teravainen recorded two goals and one assist on three shots in 16:44 as the Blackhawks beat the Penguins 5-3 on Tuesday, October 13. He finished plus-2 with no power-play goals.

The three-point performance looks impressive on paper, but it came without an uptick in shots (1.3 a night) or ice time (17:47 a night). Teravainen's underlying play grades 2 out of 100 among forwards in shots, scoring chances and ice time, a measure of how sustainable his scoring is.

Teravainen averages 0.21 goals, 0.36 assists and 0.57 points a night, so two goals and an assist is well above his recent production. His 3.0 shooting percentage on Tuesday was high, but he managed just three shots in the game, right in line with his 1.3 shots a night. He logged 16:44, about a minute less than his 17:47 a night, and saw no change to his role.

He runs on Chicago's first power-play unit, averaging 2:58 a night, fifth among all Blackhawks skaters. The Blackhawks have three games left this week, on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. His process grade of 2 out of 100 suggests the scoring will be hard to repeat without more shot volume or better deployment.

What to do

• Treat Teravainen's three-point night as one game, not a sign his role has changed.

• Do not add him in shallow leagues based on one strong performance without improved shot volume.

• If you roster him, understand his scoring is not supported by shots or ice time and will fluctuate.
