You get your goalie of the future and your #1 center.

Keeping Wolf means not tanking and building the team piece by piece by incrementally improving the talent with each trade, signing, or draft pick.
Nope, that's a false equivalency. Plenty of good to great goalies have had bad seasons, or are not enough to overcome a ####ty team. See; John Gibson, Carey Price, Hellebuyck.

The right move is to keep Wolf as happy as possible. We should have been building this year to ensure the development curve of future center matches up with his later 20s early 30s prime, but we can still try to make it work over the coming years. Has to happen in the next two or I will join the trade Wolf team.
