Dustin Wolf, Calgary Flames
Wolf (29-16-8, 2.64 GAA, .910 SV%, 3 SO) paced rookie goaltenders with 29 wins – 14 more than the next-closest player and one shy of the franchise rookie record established by Mike Vernon in 1986-87 (30-22-1, 3.62 GAA, .883 SV%, 1 SO) – as the Flames narrowly missed the playoffs due to head-to-head tiebreakers with the St. Louis Blues. Only three U.S.-born rookie netminders have earned more victories in a single season than the Gilroy, Calif., native: Jimmy Howard (37 in 2009-10 w/ DET), Frank Brimsek (33 in 1938-39 w/ BOS) and Ryan Miller (30 in 2005-06 w/ BUF). Wolf, a seventh-round selection (214th overall) in the 2019 NHL Draft, also topped 2024-25 rookie goaltenders in games played (53 – 19 more than the next-closest netminder), saves (1,409) and assists (3). He made at least 25 saves in 35 of his 53 total appearances (66.0%) and allowed two or fewer goals 25 times (47.2%). The 24-year-old is the first Calgary goaltender who has been voted to the All-Rookie Team and the franchise’s third representative (at any position) this century, joining forward Johnny Gaudreau in 2014-15 and defenseman Dion Phaneuf in 2005-06
