I don't think B stalemated Minato. If Minato was planning on killing B (which he stated he didn't want to do) he would have killed B immediately after his instantaneous teleportation behind B. Not to mention, Minato began talking after he teleported behind B.

The problem isn't that you can't compare these individuals, it's that they have different skill sets and focus in the way they fight. Minato is a speedster whose predominant jutsu use reflects this. He's not the "OMG BLOWIN UP TEH MOUNTAINS!" type, but a "SLIT YOUR THROAT BEFORE YOU COULD REACT!" type. These fighting styles have their advantages and disadvantages, so they can be compared, I think.
