Unfortunately the gap from him down on is massive. I add Hutton to that list. Both of them have been having great seasons. I give Hutton the nod over Stecher mostly because of size. Hutton has better battle and has some offensive skills. He is older. Stecher had a bigger challenge and has continued to grow thru the season to date. Impressive. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-AJ- Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Stecher is +17 on a .500 team. +/- obviously has it's flaws, but it's still not a meaningless stat. Such an insanely high +/- on a mediocre team means he's doing a lot of little things right. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has shown steady improvement this season and shown he can play a smart d-zone game. His next challenge will be CUP play which should happen next season.

They've been going out and performing, game after game, regardless of deployment, d partner, etc. Versatility is a huge plus when the injuries or slumps hit. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Provost Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 (edited) If there was an unsung hero award for the team up to this point in the season it should be Stecher. He has just been quietly solid all year. Highest +/- of all D. 19 points, even though he didn’t get much PP time until the last couple games. Edler’s and Hutton are only a point or two above him and half their points are Frk the man advantage. Not too many guys can play 30+ minutes a game, even for a short time. He is certainly making Tanev more expendable (If you could find a RD who had a point shot and offence instead to replace Tanev with).

I was scratching my head about Stecher last fall but he has been building his game since then. His play in the last month is pretty impressive, especially his PP. I add Hutton to those comments as well although his play has been pretty solid from the get go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrwipeout Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Stecher has taken the role of edler on the pp and hes doing a good job there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need someone with an actual shot though. Stecher is pretty solid distributing the puck, but other teams will cover Petterson and Boeser and let Stecher shoot all day long. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stecher is just a placeholder there until Hughes is ready, he doesn't have a shot either so hopefully his elite skating makes up for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stecher's one of the harder workers though. That man has a determination. Obviously, time will tell, but the hard workers tend to be the ones who make "doomsayers" eat their words. He obviously does need to work on his shot, but I have a strong feeling we haven't seen his peak at any rate.

J-P Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Stecher has no business being on the first PP or playing 25-30 mins on a good team. I think he's ceiling is a very good #5-6D on a contender which the Canucks will be in a few years hopefully. Absolutely nothing wrong with this, if that scenario pans out it's a huge win for both player and club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see them as a solid 2nd D pairing. We're essentially running with 2 top 4 D and 4 bottom 6. Edited February 18, 2019 by Qwags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-AJ- Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Stecher has tied his career best in assists with 2 assists tonight putting him up to 21 assists on the year. Huge bounce-back year from him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
