Schmaltz possesses good vision, shows good quickness and a strong ability to read the play in the offensive end. While he can also play in his own zone, Schmaltz's quick hands and ability to move in tight make him an attractive package.

On the Gamblers of the USHL he had two outstanding seasons back to back, he was drafted first round by Chicago this summer, and

2013-14: Schmaltz skated for the USA's U18 team at the 2013 Ivan Hlinka Memorial Tournament before returning to Green Bay for his second USHL season and participated in the 2013 CCM/USA Hockey All-American Prospects Game in September. Schmaltz led all scorers with five goals in five games at the Ivan Hlinka tournament and his eight points were tied for second behind

I would dare say then in retort...Nick Shultz is indeed Nooooooo Nick Schmaltz.

LOL B) all in good fun of course...

WOW, and this I didn't even read until this moment from Rotoworld:

IMPACT

Nick Schmaltz is an offensive juggernaut who shreds defenses with elite stickhandling, passing and shooting skills. He is a superb skater who constantly finds ways to feed his linemates even when few options are apparent. The six-foot, 172 pound center needs to add considerable muscle and improve his play away from the puck, but when the disc finds his stick, Schmaltz displays elite skill and poise while honing flashy one-on-one abilities. Schmaltz is also known for rising to the occasion, seeming to play his best when the international spotlight is on him. The Green Bay Gambler posted 63 points in 55 USHL games this year, and should have a strong offensive impact when he's ready to break into the NHL. It may take a season or two but Schmaltz will benefit from playing on the same squad as Patrick Kane, a player he can pattern his game after.
