Versteeg didn't skate as part of a regular line during Monday's practice and looks like he'll be a Game 1 scratch for the Blackhawks' second-round series with the Wild, Tracey Myers of CSN Chicago reports.
Coach Joel Quenneville elected to bring rookie Teuvo Teravainen back on to the third line at Monday's practice, which likely means that Versteeg will hit the press box for the first time this postseason. The winger, who had previously been scratched for three playoff games last season, has seen his production wane since returning from a broken hand in mid-February. Including the Blackhawks' first-round series victory over Nashville, Versteeg has produced just six goals and two assists in 33 games since the All-Star break.
