Observations:

 

December, 2012 - The exciting Teravainen will represent Finland in the WJC in Russia. Rich Dillon

 

October, 2012 - Teräväinen came with huge expectations coming into this season but he has been struggling the first seven games he has played. His only point, an assist, came in the seventh game. He is also minus-3 in that span. He is still making very creative plays and trying hard; for example, he has 29 shots in those seven games but the goals just are not coming. There's no need to worry thoug,h as Teravainen is a promising prospect. Miika Arponen

 

June, 2012 – Arguably the second best offensive player in this draft class, Teräväinen is a creative forward with soft hands and elite vision making him a threat on the offensive attack. He is a little undersized but his strong hockey sense allows him to play an efficient game that keeps his size a non-factor. Brendan Ross


February, 2012 – A mid-September birthday will likely make Teuvo Teravainen one of the youngest prospects to be drafted in the first round in 2012. The diminutive Finnish winger has been an offensive force to be reckoned with playing for Jokerit and their Under 20 team in the SM-liiga in 2011-12. A natural scorer with the agility and quickness to elude defenders, Teravainen’s future looks quite promising.

 

Fantasy Outlook: A
Flashy with all of the tools to be a top-line right winger at the NHL level.
