Backup Devin Cooley is reportedly ill and not quite feeling 100%, so Wolf will get the rare opportunity to make starts on back-to-back nights. Wolf took the loss in Montreal on Wednesday, allowing four goals on 35 shots in the 4-1 defeat. The 24-year-old netminder leads the league both in starts and losses heading into Thursday night's matchup, where the Flames enter action at +115 on the money line.
After a horrendous 2-9-2 start to the season, the Flames have played reasonably well, going 16-11-2, and miraculously find themselves only five points shy of a playoff spot midway through the season. Wolf's performance has also seen an uptick during that time, posting a 2.45 GAA and .908 SV% in 22 games (12-8-1). That said, the 24-year-old sophomore goalie has allowed four goals in two straight (0-2-0) and hopes to rebound on Wednesday when the Flames visit a Montreal Canadiens team with points in eight of their last nine games (6-1-2). Montreal enters the game as a +131 road underdog.

The Flames are coming off a 4-3 loss to the Nashville Predators, where Wolf allowed four goals on 36 shots (.889 SV%), and he will return to the crease on Monday against the Seattle Kraken. The 24-year-old Wolf has a 2.86 GAA and .900 SV% in 32 games this season (14-15-2). The Flames enter the action on Monday as -141 home favorites against a rolling Seattle Kraken team that has points in seven straight games (6-0-1).
Wolf has allowed two or fewer goals in three of his last four (3-1-0), posting a solid 2.45 GAA and .916 SV%, and will return to the crease on Wednesday against the Philadelphia Flyers. The 24-year-old Wolf has a subpar 2.89 GAA and .899 SV% in 30 games this season (13-14-2), but has been much better in recent weeks. The Flames enter Wednesday's contest as -133 home favorites against a Flyers team that defeated the Vancouver Canucks 6-3 last night.
Wolf was stellar in his most recent outing, saving 29 of 31 shots (.935 SV%) in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Edmonton Oilers. The 24-year-old goalie returns to the crease on Monday against the Boston Bruins, looking to build on a 2.96 GAA and .897 SV% through 29 games this season (12-14-2). The Flames enter Monday's contest as -127 home favorites against a Bruins team that has been outscored 23-10 during a five-game losing skid (0-4-1).
Wolf gave up five goals on 39 shots in the Flames' 5-1 loss in Edmonton on Tuesday. He'll come out of the Christmas break with another start vs. the Oilers, who are 8-2-1 in their last 11 games while scoring an absurd 4.5 goals per game. Wolf has the fifth-lowest implied win% (43.6%) and sixth-highest implied goals against (3.4) on the slate, so he's a risky option on Saturday.
After a horrendous start to the season, Wolf has played significantly better lately, winning five of his last six (5-1-0) while posting a solid 2.25 GAA and .916 SV%. The 24-year-old sophomore goalie has a 2.92 GAA and .896 SV% in 27 games this season (11-13-2). The Flames enter Tuesday's contest as +144 road underdogs against the Edmonton Oilers, whom they defeated 4-3 in a shootout in their only meeting this season.
Wolf was seemingly turning a corner, with a tremendous 1.45 GAA and .940 SV% in his last five games (4-1-0), his winningest stretch of the season, before allowing five goals on 25 shots (.800 SV%) in Tuesday's 6-3 loss to the San Jose Sharks. The 24-year-old Wolf has a 2.96 GAA and .896 SV% in 26 games this season (10-13-2). Still, the Flames enter Thursday's contest as -164 home favorites against a Seattle Kraken team that has failed to score more than three goals in 12 of their last 13 games (3-9-1).
After an abysmal start to the season, the Flames have been much better lately, winning four of their last five (4-1-0), and will turn to Wolf to tend the twine on Tuesday against the San Jose Sharks. The 24-year-old Wolf has a tremendous 1.45 GAA and .940 SV% in his last five games (4-1-0), his winningest stretch of the season. He has a 2.86 GAA and .899 SV% in 25 games (10-12-2). The Flames enter the action on Tuesday as -131 road favorites against a Sharks team that will be without one of their top offensive contributors, Will Smith (undisclosed).
After an abysmal start to the 2025-26 season, Wolf seems to be rounding into form, recording a shutout in two of his last eight games (4-3-1), and posting quality starts in four of his last five (3-2-0), posting a 1.40 GAA and .931 SV%. The 24-year-old runner-up for the 2024-25 Calder Trophy has 2.90 GAA and .899 SV% in 23 games this season (8-12-2). The Flames enter Monday's contest as slight -104 home underdogs against a Sabres team at the bottom of the Eastern Conference with 26 points (11-13-4).
Devin Cooley has led the way for the Flames over the previous few weeks, but he struggled in Tuesday's 5-1 loss to the Nashville Predators, allowing Wolf the opportunity to re-seize the crease. The 24-year-old Wolf was serviceable in relief of Cooley on Tuesday, saving 11 of 12 shots (.917 SV%), but has struggled this season. He has a 3.16 GAA and .891 SV% in 21 games this season (6-12-2). The Flames enter Thursday's contest as +103 home underdogs against a red-hot Minnesota Wild team that is 8-0-2 in their last 10 games.
After a horrendous start to the season, the Flames have played better lately, riding a season-best three-game winning streak, due largely to the strong play of backup netminder Devin Cooley. That said, the Flames hope for more consistency out of the 2024-25 runner-up for the Calder Trophy, as Wolf returns to the crease on Wednesday against the Tampa Bay Lightning. Wolf was excellent in his most recent game, saving 29 of 31 shots (.935 SV%) in a 5-2 win over the Vancouver Canucks, but is sporting a subpar 3.02 GAA and .895 SV% through 19 games this season (6-11-2). The Flames enter their matchup against the Lightning on Wednesday as +163 road underdogs.

The Flames have had a brutal start to the 2025-25 season, last in the NHL with 13 points through 20 games (5-12-3), but have started to receive more consistent netminding from Dustin Wolf. The 24-year-old Wolf has a solid 2.00 GAA and .925 SV% in his last six games (3-2-1). He has a 3.01 GAA and .896 SV% in 17 games this season (5-10-2). The Flames enter Tuesday's contest as -116 road underdogs against a Blackhawks team that is 4-2-2 at home.
