Flames' Dustin Wolf: Rough showing in overtime loss
Rotowire
Wolf surrendered four goals on 21 shots in Sunday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Ducks.
Wolf continues to struggle in January -- he's allowed four goals in seven of his eight outings this month, going 1-6-1. The 24-year-old was done in by a Beckett Sennecke hat trick in this contest. Wolf is down to 15-20-3 with a 3.03 GAA and an .896 save percentage over 39 appearances after this latest defeat. He's slipped into a timeshare with Devin Cooley, and if they continue to alternate starts, it would be Cooley getting the road start in Minnesota on Thursday before Wolf would start at home Saturday versus Wolf's hometown team, the Sharks.

Flames' Dustin Wolf: Not starting after all
Rotowire
Wolf won't start Friday's home game against the Capitals, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.
A previous report from Steinberg suggested that Wolf would draw the start against Washington, but Devin Cooley will ultimately tend the twine Friday. The two goalies have alternated starts over the past two weeks, so it wouldn't be surprising to see Wolf return to the crease at home against the Ducks on Sunday.

Rotowire
Wolf made 28 saves in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Islanders.

Flames' Dustin Wolf: Back in net against Columbus
Rotowire
Wolf is slated to start in Tuesday's road matchup against the Blue Jackets, Derek Wills of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.
After his first game of rest in the new year, Wolf is back in the starting lineup and set to tend his ninth contest in the team's last 10 games. He has been called upon tirelessly this season and is tied with Nashville's Juuse Saros for the most games played. Wolf has a 14-18-2 record, a 2.97 GAA and an .897 save percentage through 35 games this season. He'll face a Columbus squad that ranks 21st in the NHL with 2.91 goals per game this season. This fact, combined with receiving four full days of rest since his last outing, gives Wolf a solid outlook ahead of Tuesday's start.

Rotowire
Wolf stopped 23 of 27 shots in Monday's 5-1 loss to the Kraken.
Wolf didn't have his best performance in this loss, and the struggles are real for the 24-year-old netminder.

Through 33 appearances this season, Wolf owns a 2.90 GAA and an .899 save percentage -- numbers that represent a significant decline compared to the 2024-25 campaign.
