And Matt Murray and Ben Bishop are examples yes, but Carey Price, Holtby, Anderson and Gibson are examples of goalies who are/were elite without being a beanpole.

Don't these examples, as well as others like Jordan Binnington and Tuuku Rask, defeat your point? So what if some goalies carry more muscle-mass than others? It would appear that it's not essential to playing the position.

I think weight factors in giving you the best chance at a long and lenghty career with less injuries. Yes skinnier men can play at the position there is tons of stats to back it up but this is simply my opinion.

There does not seem to be any evidence to support your opinion. Am I missing something?

Simon and Simon had a pretty kickass theme song too.

Even though Dallas and the Dukes of Hazard originated in the 70's those are two T.V. themes that I remember and associate with the 80's. As a 5-8 year old Friday night was awesome because I got to stay up late and watch the Dukes of Hazard, and always saw the opening theme for Dallas after that. Attempting to skirt piano lessons, I agreed to play in band in school so as to not have to lose after school time doing something I didn't like I played Trumpet...so the theme for Dallas was the pinnacle of those days. Between shows like Dukes of Hazard, Knight Rider, and the Fall Guy...no wonder I drive like a maniac.

Hopefully young Wolf can continue to develop and become something for the team.

The WHL has decided to stagger their awards over the month of May (which started this week). The Del Wilson Memorial Trophy/Goaltender of the Year Award is slated for May 18.

We'll see how our young Mr. Wolf fares.

Next season (when that happens) should be interesting. Wolf has an opportunity to completely run the table again on an individual basis.

Not well-informed on how the perennially strong Everett Silvertips might fare, but a lenghty, victorious 2021 playoff run would cap off a stellar Junior career.
