Yes, I know they are different positions. However, who do you think is better?

Close one. Couturier is younger, has played more games, has more points. Stone is a better goal scorer. Defense is close, but I'd give the edge to Couturier due to being a center.

 

[StoneHands]

Going Couts here but I don't blame anyone for picking Stone.

If we're factoring in defensive play which is obviously important for both of these guys, we also have to factor in which position has more defensive responsibilities.

 

[BowDownToVasilevskiy]

Stone imo

 

[Connor McConnor]

Stone by a hair.

 

[Laveuglette]

Voted Couturier, but this is a good poll. Good arguments can be made for both.

 

[BarD2428]

Very Close if I was choosing for a game. Hard to definitively say who is better. Who do I take going forward? I take couturier due to position, contract, age.

I think Couturier continuing to produce at a similar rate without Giroux on his line and Stone scoring closer to his overall rate last year as opposed to what he did in Ottawa/the playoffs has changed perceptions on whether there's much of an offensive difference between the two, and if there isn't, then Couturier's defense should put him ahead.

I'm going Stone here. Not an easy call though. My vote is mainly based on how frustrating he can be as an opponent.

If the Sharks played more against the Flyers, you would say the same about Couturier.

I really like Couturier. He's an awesome player. I've felt the same about them even before the Knights picked up Stone. As I said before, it's very close. If I were building a new team I might select Couturier. For the Sharks current lineup, I'm taking Stone.

 

[Rhaegar Targaryen]

Stone definitely

Oh god why? Couturier is a perfect fit for the Sharks and isn't limited to wing. Couturier is more versatile than Stone and Couturier / Couture down the middle would be hellish to play against, and either Couture or Hertl would have incredible chemistry with Couturier no matter which would move to wing and the sloppy ozone / transition game of the Sharks would be shored up with such a responsible player like Couturier, and he could only make the Sharks defense better.

Easily Stone, continues to be the most underrated player in hockey.

 

[StoneHands]

Couts. Same offensive output and both are great defensively but Couts plays the more important position.

Isn't this the third time this poll has been done this season?

Well no. Calendar year, yes.

Every time i see a poll between these two players i shake my head because it's obvious who's better. Then i view results and become even more perplexed.
