That being said, I don't have much quibble with any of Huston, Michkov, Wolf or Celibrini. All are worthy.

I can sort of understand. A 19 year old dominating isn't the same as a fully developed physically mature 24 year old doing the same. To me it's amazing Wolf is in the conversation as a goaltender doing so well and relatively small. But the 23 year old thing plays into it a little. I think it'll be Celebrini ultimately. He's been way better than most have anticipated. Smart and can make the highlights. Could be the next Bergeron with some flare.
