Dustin Wolf Scouting Reports

Starting to get some games at the NHL level. Deserves the opportunity.
Has won at every level and been recognized as the top goalie, and MVP, at the WHL and AHL levels. Size has always been a discussion for the NHL game, but it wouldn't be wise to underestimate his trajectory. Squares up very well. Top of his crease to take away net. Lateral push is timely. Quick and fast moving side to side. Never quits on a puck. Resilient battler who is already showing he can keep the Flames in games when they call his number.
2.50GAA - .920 save % in AHL - 3.03GAA - .901 save % in NHL games this year.

He's ready for the next challenge.

Size will always be the discussion but he is a very efficient goalie who's ultra competitive. He displays patience in his crease. His composure waits out opponents. He rarely drops first or over-anticipates. Lateral quickness is NHL caliber. When moving side to side he will angle out on the shooter to take away the top of the net. If he does get caught too deep in his crease, and low in his butterfly, he relies on any kind of desperation stop required. Wolf has quick gloves. There aren't any significant weaknesses in his game.
