He’s a young guy. Let’s not bury him if he comes out and only puts up a .900 save % this coming season. If he has a sophomore slump, which would probably be more in line with the norm, we shouldn’t panic.
Goalies, and goalie development, are unpredictable.

Whatever expectations people have for Wolf, he consistently exceeds them each year.
The only reasonable expectation at this point is to assume he will be a Vezina nominee next year, and win the thing in the next three years
