Stützle scored 33 regular season goals on 273 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2025-26. His densest patch is the crease, 7 ft out: 16/33 · 48% of his goals came from inside nine feet of that point, against 36% of the league’s goals from the same patch.

Unblocked attempts — shots on goal, goals and misses — taken in the offensive zone, 2025-26. Clubs change ends each period, so every attempt is rotated into one zone; the shooter’s left is the left of the frame. Blocked attempts are not plotted, and neither is anything taken from the neutral or defensive zone — which is where 1 of his goals in this window came from, empty nets and long range. This is a record of what happened, not a forecast: nothing here is claimed to repeat.
