I don't have a problem believing that Wolf is 6'0" (per Flames' website). It's not his height that makes him look small, it's the 166lbs and how much net that doesn't take up.
Our other two goalies are 6'6"/207lbs and 6'5"/209lbs. Those are some abnomally large humans to try to compare him to. He gives up half a foot and 50lbs to what our brains have become accustomed to seeing in goal.
I like the direction we're headed in right now. I like that he's currently the starter, and hope it stays like this for the rest of the season whether he starts to struggle again or not. Like I've said before, a sizable portion of a goalie's skillset is between their ears, and I want to know if he has that in addition to his obvious physical skills.
