Teravainen scored a goal in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to Utah.

Teravainen broke up Connor Ingram's shutout bid at 14:27 of the second period. The 30-year-old Teravainen has gotten first dibs on a first-line role alongside Connor Bedard, who set up his tally Tuesday. Keeping that plum assignment will be critical for Teravainen's offense this year. He had a career-best 25 goals and added 28 assists over 76 contests with the Hurricanes last season, but the supporting cast in Chicago is much weaker than what he's been used to in Carolina.
