Tim Stutzle's Player Profile

Jokke Nevalainen - Dobber Prospects - Sept. 30th: "He plays fast and thinks the game quickly. He can skate circles around the offensive zone and look for weaknesses in the defensive team’s structure."

Scott Wheeler - The Athletic - Sept. 21st: "He can also play at different tempos, which is a huge asset for a player with that kind of skating ability. Some players who can burn north-south really struggle to slow down the game and put themselves in bad spots with the puck as a result."

Mike Morreale - NHL.com - Aug. 25th: "A hard-working left-handed shooter capable of playing all situations with speed, great vision and swagger. He scored 34 points (seven goals, 27 assists) and had 132 shots on goal in 41 games this season."

Adam Kimelman - NHL.com - Aug. 25th: "The 18-year-old's mature game allowed him to earn a significant role on one of the top teams in the DEL, and that experience against more developed competition should help him make a quicker jump to the NHL."

Steve Kourmianos - The Draft Analyst - Aug. 10th: "The most excitable forward available, Stutzle was Rookie of the Year in the adult-age Deutschen Eishockey Liga and led Germany at the world juniors. Blessed with speed, sick hands, and an intense compete level, Stutzle’s game is geared for North American hockey."

Chris Peters - ESPN - June 30th: "He has high-end puckhandling and skating abilities along with elite vision and hockey sense. He has a nice release and good shot, but I think his hands work best when he's snapping passes, especially down low."

Sam Cosentino - Sportsnet - June 25th: "There’s enough track record that he projects at centre in the NHL and that may be enough for him to pass Byfield."

Mike G. Morreale - NHL.com - June 22nd: "The 6-1, 187-pound left-hand shot can play all situations with speed, great vision and some swagger. He scored 34 points (seven goals, 27 assists) and had 132 shots on goal in 41 games for Mannheim of Deutsche Eishockey Liga, the top professional league in Germany."

Ryan Kennedy - The Hockey News - May 11th: "Stutzle was impressive at the world juniors (where he played center), but he also looked great against men back in the DEL. So much skill and upside."

Nick Abramo - The Hockey Writers - May 11th: "He’s an excellent playmaker, with great offensive awareness. He’s been used at centre and the wing."

Sam Cosentino - Sportsnet - Apr. 8th: "Plenty of discussion surrounding Stützle as the second-best prospect available in this draft class."

NHL Central Scouting analysis - NHL.com - Apr. 3rd: "His speed is impressive ... he can fly. Stuetzle's puck handling and vision are also excellent. He's got a good attitude, works hard on every shift, and is so confident with the puck. He's also a little bit cocky on the ice, but in a positive way."

Cam Robinson - Dobber Prospects - Apr. 1st: "High-end speed propels this creative pivot. Elite two-step quickness blends into an explosive, puck-possession style. Has good hands but can overhandle it at times."

Mike G. Morreale - NHL.com - Mar. 20th: "A hard-working left-handed shot who is capable of playing all situations with speed, great vision and some swagger. He had 34 points (seven goals, 27 assists) and 132 shots on goal in 41 games for Mannheim of Deutsche Eishockey Liga, the top professional league in Germany."

Mike G. Morreale - NHL.com - Mar. 6th: "A hard-working lefty capable of playing all situations with speed, great vision and some swagger. He has 32 points (seven goals, 25 assists) and 80 shots on goal in 39 games for Mannheim of the Deutsche Eishockey Liga in Germany."
