Dustin Wolf is 19-years-old, and with 3 professional games on his resume. The Flames will not go in to the season with him sitting on the bench as Markstrom's backup, and the only way he gets into NHL games would be on a NHL LTIR recall. But in the event that one of Markstrom or his backup goalie is injured for an extended period of time next year, they will almost certainly make a move for a temporary stop-gap rather than to throw their 20-year-old top prospect into a handful of NHL games.
Wolf is at least two years away from the NHL.
