He is widely regarded as a top 10 goalie prospect with some ranking him as high as #3 in the mix with Askarov and Wallstadt.
The kid is like 2cm shorter than Shesterkin, and 3cm taller than Saros..it’s not like he is Vernon’s size or anything..
Why not wait to see if he fails or not before we write him off?

I don't think it's negativity and more surprise that the Flames are ranked this high given Wolf is not a proven commodity in the NHL and Vladar is a mediocre backup goaltender. Nobody is denying Wolf's potential but until things play out we really don't know how things will pan out for him in the NHL.
