Flames Sign Goalie Dustin Wolf to 7-Year, $52.5 Million Extension
Dustin Wolf, an NHL rookie standout and Calder Trophy finalist, secured a seven-year, $52.5 million extension starting 2026-27, reflecting his key role in Calgary Flames' success.
- On Monday, the Calgary Flames announced a seven-year contract extension for goaltender Dustin Wolf, starting in 2026-27 and running through the 2032-33 season.
- Because he finished as a Calder finalist, Wolf posted a 29-16-8 record with a.910 SV% in 53 games, earning the deal.
- Financially, the contract features an average annual value of $7.5 million, which sits below top-paid netminders like Igor Shesterkin of the New York Rangers at $11.5 million and Carey Price of the San Jose Sharks at $10.5 million.
- The move stabilizes Calgary's goalie situation and consumes five years of Wolf's UFA eligibility, impacting a roster with at least seven pending UFAs, including Backlund, Andersson, and Lomberg.
- Wolf said in a statement he wants to stay long-term in Calgary, noting he enjoys the city and the fans, according to the Calgary Herald on Aug. 15.
