Wheeler still loves Dustin Wolf. He actually dropped a spot to #5 in his rankings due to Askarov coming on the scene.
Quote:
5. Dustin Wolf, G, 19 (Calgary Flames — 214th overall, 2019)
Previous ranking: No. 4
The little goalie that could, I’m confident Wolf will someday be saying he “did.” Maybe the goalie prospect I most enjoy watching, Wolf has fascinated me for his ability to look big despite so obviously being small. When you notice how tiny a goalie is in the net, it’s normally not a good sign. There just aren’t many goalies who make a career out of it at 5-foot-11 or 6-foot. But Wolf is an ultra-talented, positional goalie who stays within himself through tight, controlled movement that rarely stray. If the success of Anton Khudobin in the Stanley Cup playoffs taught us anything, it’s that there are always exceptions to the rule. Wolf’s got the numbers and the skill set to support his case. He’s quick, he’s got a stellar glove hand to compensate for his lack of size up top, and though he’s rarely swimming in the net, whenever he has to he does an exceptional job recentreing to track the puck.
