Still think Vladar/Wolf tandem for at least 1+ years is better than a Markstrom/Wolf tandem for another 2 years. I really want to see if Vladar can actually take the reigns to become a #1 goalie rather than being a backup. One year to show it during a rebuild is better than 2 years wasted with a high cap goalie and the team is gonna be mediocre trying to make the playoffs. At least with Vladar, if it doesn't work out, Wolf will see more action to earn his spot. With Markstrom for another 2 years, Wolf will be mostly sitting on the bench like Vladar's doing for the past several years. At least with Markstrom gone, it'll be a start of a youth movement - 2 years sooner the better.
