If he turns out 75% of Drai , I’ll be very happy. He looks like a star.

Agreed. And he's doing this at 18 which is pretty super. Hopefully they can protect him and keep him healthy.

Or be patient and watch Holloway turn out to be just as good. Keep broberg might come in very handy if klef announces an early retirement.

He's going to be a 60 point player. I would actually compare him more to RNH, Draisaitl is quite a bit bigger and a better shooter so he can drive the net more.

Would you make this trade? Just curious. As an Oilers fan it's a little to much to soon. Holloway is looking like a top 10 pick right now. I've been so up and down with Broberg, he can skate miles but won't know how his game translates until he plays. And then the first is anyone's guess

Samorukov is ready to make the jump to the NHL.

I would have to insist that holloway + a first is equal value to Stutzle right now but to actually get him you would need to throw in something big.

Stutzle’s speed and stick handling are elite. If you even watch him on the PP, he can find open guys very easily with his vision too. And now he can shoot, watch out. I think he will be way better than a 60pt player. Just wait till you play him at centre between Alex Formenton and a guy like Dylan Guenther

yes I like him very much. Even before the draft I said i'd take Stutzle number 1 or trade down and still get him.

With his shoulder injury, it might set him back a few months. I'd expect him to play 20 games in the AHL next year and earn a call up. Unless he has a great camp obviously.

60pt player isn’t aiming very high tho. I think he will be a 70-80pt player

2022 is probably the deepest draft in several decades. It would be NUTS to trade away that pick without totally winning the trade.

Stutzle is going to turn out to be the best player in his draft class. I wanted him in Detroit so bad.

I can't wait to see them in some sort of National team action together. I think Drai and Stutzle, with Germany's decent set of goaltenders, could upset some pretty good teams almost singlehandedly in a game where they are on fire.
