From what I've seen of Bollig and what I've seen of Wolf, Bollig doesn't have the speed or puck control that Wolf does when he has the puck. Bollig with the puck isn't exactly an offensive threat. Wolf with the puck and some speed is like a 200lb solid steel freight train coming up the boards and THROUGH defencemen. He's not afraid to make room for himself if he's not given it. In Germany, as much as he played a physical game, he was 2nd on the team for scoring the last two years and 3rd the year before that. He has scoring talent.
I think Wolf would be good for 15-20pts a season in a limited 4th line role. Something in the 5G, 10A sort of range. I think he's capable of that while getting 4th line minutes. If he gets more minutes, I would expect the totals to go up.
