If true, this is good news in my books. I incorrectly predicted prior to this last season that the Flames would finish in the bottom 5, but it became evident that with Wolf in the fold, that's not going to happen. Things can change with Wolf and goalies are voodoo, but if I were forced to bet on it, I'm betting Wolf remains one of the league's top goalies for a good while, which means finishing low enough to get a shot at a top 5 pick is highly, highly unlikely. So, let's go for it and make smart adds to address areas the team needs help in. Scoring help is the most urgent.
