Ottawa Senators Top 25 Under 25, #3: Tim Stuetzle

18-year-old Tim Stützle (or Stuetzle) is undoubtedly the most exciting prospect in the Sens’ pipeline right now. Coming off a stellar season in the DEL (Deutsche Eishockey Liga - which translates to German Ice Hockey League), in which he was ranked as the top European prospect and selected third overall in the 2020 NHL entry draft - tying Leon Draisaitl as the highest drafted German player in NHL history - the hype is real.

His stats in German leagues have been talked to death this year, both on this blog and elsewhere, so if you’re looking for an in-depth analysis of his skills, I’ll point you to those pieces, because they’re fantastic.
