Stenberg for a number of reasons. Having said that the gap is not very wide but it so much depends on what you value in a player?
Does Mckenna probably have the higher ceiling? Probably. However for an average sized winger to be a gamechanger is rare and only about four or five if these guys are in the league. He is pure offense so his usage is going to be offense only. Has the talent to be a 100 point guy in strategic deployment. Doing great in the NCAA.
Stenberg is already playing in a men’s professional league as an 18 year old. You dont get ice time unless your contributing to winning and he is just under a point per game. Has the talent to be a point per game but also a player you use whether defending a lead or looking to get it. To me that makes him a more valuable player-deployment.
Obviously my take would be happy getting any of the guys in the top five or six.
