SEATTLE -- Dustin Wolf has faced a number of questions over the last seven years:

Is he really that good? Can a smaller goalie be trusted when every team wants a bigger option in net? Can he replicate his WHL success in the AHL? Can his AHL success be parlayed into giving the Calgary Flames a franchise goalie to win games and get into the playoffs?

Wolf now faces another question: Could he or someone else in this season's rookie class become the first goalie in more than a decade to win the Calder Trophy?
