I like the Wolf snub. It allows him to just focus on the Flames for his sophomore year and gives him a bit of chip to put on his shoulder while he does it.

Guys like him are used to having to prove they belong. It's helps drive them to be even better than they already are. The cool thing though is when they succeed it tends to resonate more with fans than when the bigger guys do it. Big guys are expected to be good. They're big. They have no excuse for not being good. Little guys aren't expected to be able to do anything. They don't even get the chance half the time, so when they do succeed people want to see them more than the boring big guys. TLDR: Wolf will kick enough ass that fans/media will eventually put him on the team, whether managemnt wants to or not.
