2X WHL Goalie of the Year (2020, 2021)
1x CHL Goalie of the Year (2020)
2X AHL Goalie of the Year (2022, 2023)
1x AHL MVP (2023)
NHL All-Rookie Team (2025)
Calder Runner Up (2025)
The organization has 6 years of seeing him in the organization now, and he's been pretty good at every level.
Of course some risk involved, but this contract isn't based on just his one year in the NHL for sure.

Yes, exactly the points that I think me and EE were making. No team would be handing this contract out to a flash in the pan goalie that has only shown one solid year. This deal is based on last year affirming what his trajectory has thus far showed, and I believe it will be a great bet long-term.
I am just betting that many fan bases who haven't tracked Wolf's progression probably think it is an overpay by the Flames in an attempt to retain players.
