The Calgary Flames locked up the services of young goaltender Dustin Wolf with a seven-year, $52.5 million contract extension on Tuesday.
The $7.5 million average annual value is a massive pay bump for Wolf, who is set to earn $850,000 in the final year of his previous contract in 2025-26. The extension begins with the 2026-27 campaign.
Wolf, 24, was a finalist for the Calder Trophy last season as one of the league's top rookies, finishing 29-16-8 with three shutouts, a .910 save percentage and a 2.64 goals-against average.
Wolf made the NHL All-Rookie team and finished second in the Calder voting to Montreal Canadiens defenseman Lane Hutson.
A seventh-round pick in the 2019 draft, Wolf is 37-23-9 with a .906 save percentage and 2.73 GAA in 71 games over the past three seasons.
