History
2005-06: Teubert made a cameo appearance with the Pats in 2005-06. In 14 games, Teubert tallied two assists and 16 PIM. He was a member of the Pats post-season roster as well. Playing in six games, Teubert had one assist and four PIM.
2006-07: Teubert continued to develop as a top tier defensive defenseman with the Pats. In 63 games, Teubert tallied 11 points (three goals, eight assists) to go along with 91 PIM. Teubert also played in the post-season, recording one assist and 13 PIM in 10 games.
2007-08: Teubert was named to the Canadian squad at the 2007 Canada-Russia Super Series. Teubert also improved his offensive game heading into the 2007-08 season and produced 23 points for Regina of the WHL, but will never be known as a scorer.
2008-09: After being cut in training camp, Teubert went back to Regina of the WHL with a bit of a chip on his shoulder. A chip too big, perhaps, as squabbling and undisciplined play led to his demotion by midseason. After working his way back into the line-up, Teubert finished the season strong, setting career highs in goals and points, before being assigned to Ontario of the ECHL to get his first taste of professional hockey.
Talent Analysis
Teubert is not much of a threat on offense. The 6’4 blue liner is a big, strong, stay at home defenseman. He plays a shutdown defensive game. Continued focus on building foot speed and quickness will complement his physical stature. Size, grittiness and toughness are obvious attributes. A fierce competitor that thrives on going up against the opposition's best.
Future
Given his size and current skill set, Teubert has the potential to become a great defensive minded defender at the NHL level. Teubert is the possble shut-down defensive counter-part to the more offensively gifted Thomas Hickey in the coming years. He needs to settle down his emotions and discipline his game if he wants to take the next step in his development.
