That's simply ridiculous!
Actually,he has a PPG average of 1.973. He's one 3 point game away from 2 PPG.

The good news is that nearly 60% of his points are ES points, so it's not like he's getting the majority of his points on the PP either which is really good news. He's scoring 66% of his goals at ES which is good as well (Rattie, on the other hand has over half of his goals on the PP). Baertchi actually has a similar ES goal scoring rate to Rattie at 0.38 ES + SH GPG vs 0.4 ES+SH GPG which should help appease those who are worried about his goal scoring ability. That ES goal scoring rate is right on par with most of the WHL's top players. Emerson Etem is in a whole different category though with 37 ES goals in 51 game or .73 ES GPG.
