Getting the prime time eyeballs, and being seen as 'less' of a rookie age wise could be knocks against him in the minds of some voters.

It’s a good point, but Wolf is generating good buzz and is hitting the highlight shows even with the time change. Calgary’s unexpected push for the playoffs is going to continue to draw attention too and if they make it, there’s going to be a lot of talk about why… and with Calgary’s scoring issues, the reason is clearly going to be all about Wolf.
I don’t think it’s a lock though as Celebrini is having a heck a rookie year on an crappy team and you’re right that, with his age, he’ll get a lot of votes.
There’s a part of me that kind of would like celebrini to take it over Wolf, as Wolf seems to feed off of being that underdog… he’s kind of perfect for the Flames team that way. keep that chip on his shoulder and the Flames will benefit.
