If Wolf continues all year doing what he has done thus far, he will get a lot of run for the trophy, the league has taken notice. But there are other guys (much younger as well) who are doing pretty incredible things too and do them more often which will give them heavy consideration as well.

Im just happy the Flames have found a guy that looks to be a long term solution to a longer term problem.
Counter argument is that he actually plays more minutes.

Wolf: 1509
Celebrini: 705
Hutson: 1015

Now if a rookie goalie only plays 30 games or something then I can see that being an argument against him.

But if he gets to 50 games then that shouldn't be a strike. Thats pretty much "starter" volume on most teams nowadays
