Wolf will start earning $7.5 million per year on his new contract that'll start during the 2026-2027 season.
"Eight more years here in the city," said Wolf, reacting to the new deal. "Now you don't have those contract talks looking over your shoulder; you can just go play. Hopefully, I have eight more years of not having to worry about that and now I can worry about playing hockey and helping my team win and go from there."
The 24-year-old netminder was a Calder finalist last season after boasting a 29-16-8 record, 2.64 goals-against average, and a .910 save percentage (ranked 2nd). His fantastic year followed a rookie season where he earned All-Rookie honours, proving to the league he's officially one of the best goalies in the world at such a young age.
However, Wolf still didn't receive an invite to the 2026 US Olympic team's orientation camp.
"Would I have loved to go to the orientation camp? Sure, that's the first step in going to the Olympics, but it's not the end of the world. I got to spend another week training, getting ready for the season."
