Tehopisteet

Tehopisteet is a Finnish term that translates to "power points" or "performance points." It is most commonly used in the context of sports and games to denote a player's contribution to their team's success through scoring or assisting in scoring. The exact definition and calculation of tehopisteet can vary depending on the specific sport or league. Generally, tehopisteet are awarded for goals scored and assists provided. An assist is typically credited to a player who makes a pass or play that directly leads to a teammate scoring. In some sports, like ice hockey, tehopisteet are a primary statistic used to evaluate individual player performance and compare players across teams and leagues. The accumulation of tehopisteet can significantly influence a player's reputation, contract negotiations, and potential for awards. While the concept is straightforward, the precise rules for awarding points, especially for assists, can sometimes lead to debate among analysts and fans. Beyond sports, the term can occasionally be used more broadly to refer to any situation where measurable performance or contribution is being tracked.
