It's a bit of a cart/horse thing though. Vladar gives you a much better chance at a high draft pick (he was bad in the first game, and was very lucky some goals were called back against Edmonton that weren't good too) where as Wolf is close to entering that difference maker category (if all continues to move forward).
I think it's more about just being fair to both guys and not just giving the starting job to Wolf because he's supposed to be the guy for years to come.

I wouldn't really say Vladar was bad against Vancouver. He had a rough first but so did the whole team. He gave them a chance to comeback and win.

He's let in some goals he shouldn't have but so has Wolf.
