For that reason, the other two would be coveted more than Wolf by GM’s.
He’s not just small , he’s very small. He’s always adjusted to leagues as he’s gone along, this last step will be a huge step for him.

I mean....I get it, 6'0 is small for an NHL goalie these days, but is it "very small"? do we talk about 6'0'' like he's Mike Vernon in the current NHL?
Are NHL Gm's really worried about Wolf's frame vs Shesterkin at 6'1'', or Saros at 5'11''?
Goalies under 6'2'' are for sure the outliers currently. Seems to me a goalie needs to be outstanding to get a shot under this height, but Wolf has been outstanding at every level. I'm super curious to watch his progression compared to some of these other goalie prospects, and eventually compared to bigger current NHL goalies. I have a feeling he will continue to excel.
