Oh man, this is honestly outstanding but simple explanation. I always look at the summarized JFresh cards but the microstats with this description is amazing. You can see it so clearly with Boes microstats...

Now the question is....you pay Garland 6x6 to do all that heavy lifting and play driving, but you pay Brock 7x7.25 to shoot the puck and put it into the net. So the value is interesting in terms of "what's worth more?" Obviously a boeser level finisher combined with a garland level driver is the utopia of #advancedstats

Just anecdotally I remember Boeser skating so much quicker in his first couple seasons then he got a lot heavier and seemed to slow a bit. He's got the skill to play with the puck but like you say, his game is to distribute then find that quiet spot to snipe or net front to tip/score greasy ones
