Four point opening night in the Q and he’s still only 16. I feel like he was already starting to catch up to the other 2026 Swiss players so it’ll be interesting to see how high he can climb.
Who you think he had to catch up to?
Personally, I'm very high on goalie prospect Jovin Trachsel who had an outstanding last season but you can't really compare skaters and goalies and the latter are tough to predict at this age anyway. When it comes to Swiss 2026 eligible skaters I think Steiner has been the by far most promising for a while now.
I agree with you that he's sort of a late bloomer though. I think that over the course of last season it became clear that he's the best Swiss 07 born forward already despite being a late birthday and Florian Schenk making decent progress as well.
Definitely interesting to see Steiner enter the CHL with a bang. Euro rookies usually need time to adjust both on and off the ice. Will be interesting to see if Steiner can keep it going and continue to score.
