So far through 3 starts each, Wolf and Vladar have allowed 7 and 8 goals respectively... however Wolf has faced 37 more shots.

I am deeply curious why the Penguins discovered that shooting on Wolf's glove side worked flawlessly and then immediately stopped trying it.

Like "okay, now we know he can't save that, let's move on and investigate these other moves."

Wolf said his penguins intel was wrong... so maybe somehow they freaked out and played themselves?

Maybe they noticed an adjustment? Or the fact that lefties started shooting? Letang was the only RH shot after Rust and I was surprised he went for the deke rather than a shot with him being a defenseman.

Scoring has started to dry up, as expected, but they’re getting really solid goaltending. Wolf should start against the Canes, too

Honestly, they've both earned it. Vladar only has poor numbers due to the first period vs Vancouver and none of those goals were on him, they were the result of the team being undisciplined.

I'd prefer Wolf starts against the Hurricanes and let Vladar deal with the Jets on Saturday. But I'm good with them continuing to alternate.
