Maybe you could explain why you think it’s not even close then.
Feel as though Stuetzle is being overrated here. Zegras shows more pure skill and potential while being the better skater.
If this was ten years ago Id take Stuetzle but with where the game is going, Ill take Zegras for sure.
Zegras is better at lacrosse goals, TS is better at going around players, stick handles in a phone booth.Feel as though Stuetzle is being overrated here. Zegras shows more pure skill and potential while being the better skater.

Idk if any of this is correct, Cept for physical part.Zegras is better at lacrosse goals, TS is better at going around players, stick handles in a phone booth.
Skating is a wash, both are great.
TS is much more physical.
Fair post, so much better than the one fan saying it wasn’t even close at all, and got a “wow” reply when I said it’s very close.Idk if any of this is correct, Cept for physical part.
In general it’s very lazy to just talk about zegras lacrosse goals, as it’s only a very small percentage of what he did this season.
Stick handling and going around players zegras might already be 1 of the best players in the league at that.
Skating I think stutzle is a better pure skater
Shooting I think stutzle is better, but I think zegras offers a better variety of shooting… he can beat you in so many ways… I do think it’s part of zegras game that doesn’t get respected enough
Hockey sense/play making is zegras, but stutzle is closer than people prob realize and I’d argue stutzle is underrated rated in this area in the same way zegras is on his shot
both are in the same tier of player tho, def needed a too close/undecided option at this point
I mean in time maybe it’s not close(from either side) , but right now I’d have a hard time trying to argue 1 over the other.Fair post, so much better than the one fan saying it wasn’t even close at all, and got a “wow” reply when I said it’s very close.
Zegras is for sure a better skater than Stuetzle. And it wasnt an insult saying Id prefer him 10 years ago, but in terms of projecting these guys totals' later on I need to assume the guy whos game is more tailor-made for open ice is the one whos going to do better, whether by a lot or by a little idk.Explain a comment like this. What about Stu's game makes him more suited to 10 years ago?
Also, Stu is one of the better skaters in the league. Is Zegras a top 10 skater? I don't see that. I see their skating as being pretty equal with Stu having better high end spend, Z having better edging/control.
I've watched a lot of both and I'm not seeing Zegras being a better skater. At least not the extent where I'd consider it a significant advantage.Zegras is for sure a better skater than Stuetzle.

But yeah I feel confident saying Trevor Zegras is a better skater than Tim Stuetzle
I also prefer guys like Stuetzle, though for watching Id prefer a Zegras of course lol.I've watched a lot of both and I'm not seeing Zegras being a better skater. At least not the extent where I'd consider it a significant advantage.
Quite honestly, Stutzle would benefit just as much from open ice? I don't understand your point.
I personally prefer skilled guys with a bit of scrappiness to them and it's why I prefer Tim.

I don't know about that, Zegras has more mobility with the puck than most in the league. He can turn his body any directions to receive a pass and not lose stride. I never seen a Duck player with the mobility and agility he has. Speed wise Stutzle definitely has him beat but there's more to skating than that. Zegras has elite edges and hip flexibility that allows him to do things with his feet most cannot.Stutzle is a much better skater. That's the one area where it's not close.
Yeah, but it's not like Stutzle is a slouch in terms of agility, elusiveness, and edge control.I don't know about that, Zegras has more mobility with the puck than most in the league.

Yep I think stutzle is a better pure skater…. Faster strong…. Still has good edge work and agility.Yeah, but it's not like Stutzle is a slouch in terms of agility, elusiveness, and edge control.
Zegras just doesn't have the speed and power that Stutzle has, though his skating has come a long way in the last few years as he's matured.
8 months away from being 21.I also prefer guys like Stuetzle, though for watching Id prefer a Zegras of course lol.
And I didnt say it has to be a significant advantage. But that I would put Zegras above him for his ability to use open space being more proficient IMO.
Doesnt mean Stuetzle isnt still a 21yo soon to be 1st line center
