    Default What's up with Teravainen?

    He's getting decent line mates and as much opportunity as one can expect in Carolina. In fact, TT has had much better line mates, zone starts and PP time that he did in Chicago. Carolina is not a high scoring team but he doesn't seem to be able to carry the play on his own. It is time to consider that TT may be a bust?

    Not really? Aho has only 1 more point, is he a bust too? Is Faulk a shitty player for only having 7 pts in 21 games?

    Entire Carolina team is sucking. Ya Skinner is extremely talented and can make do, Rask is a decent surprise too. But you can't expect much when you throw in a bunch of young talent together and hope it sticks

    Needs to shoot the puck more. Gets great chances as hes a smart player but tends to pass on the easy play to force a pretty one. Could simply shoot more. He is most probably not going to bust

    I doubt Chicago traded him away because their most recent internal scouting projection reported he was going to be awesome. Might be time to re-evaluate the hype and reel things in somewhat.

    Young player on a sub par team that likely could have used another year behind the big guns in Chicago before taking that step.

    I agree it's tough for anyone to do much in Carolina, but Aho is only 19 and in his first season. Faulk is an established top 4 d-man. TT needs to prove he's the real deal soon or he may go the way of Pulkinen, Jurco, etc.

    Nowhere near... Carolina have admitted they are letting the kids learn and continue to throw them out there despite the struggles. Do we see TT flourish by the end of the season? Probably not but I think this learning will do the whole organisation good and will see them far more competitive next season because of it
    Experience is the teacher of all things.
