The smoke says this is the wrong fire for the kid to start cooking. If he's not coming to be the saviour but the expectation is to still make noise then there's no need to put pressure on a rookie goaltender. If it's as much of a write off that some people think it is there really is no rush.
Starting fresh in October would be the prudent choice no matter how you look at it.

Jesus, this way of thinking drives me crazy! Imagine Stars were thinking the same way, Oettinger must have felt so under pressure last playoff series agaisnt us, right? The team in front of him getting outplayed night in and out and he still made it a 7 game series. And lost in OT in the end on a sharp angle goal. Did it kill his confidence? Hell no.
You want Wolf to be a starer in NHL some day? There is no other job in the world with that much pressure. I am sure he is aware of it himself. I am also sure he is 100% ok with it. I am pretty sure he would do anything to be called up right now. And I am also pretty sure if it doesn't work out and we miss out, he is not gonna get the blame for it. You can hardly overlook the first 60 games of the season he was not invloved with and put all the blame on the deadline callup when you don't make it, right?
