The difference between Tatar and Nyquist shooting really isn't much. The seperation in shots on goal isn't all that large and most of it came while Gus was nursing a banged up shoulder from a dirty Beach hit. Tatar does shoot a little more, but fair warning he also misses the net pretty often. So he is slightly more a shoot first player but the zone time possession dies on his stick an awful lot more. But lets not pretend Gus doesn't shoot the puck.

This year

Nyquist = 2.98 Shots on goal per game
Tatar = 3.3 Shots on goal per game

That is not a crazy difference like some are trying to make it out to be.
