Wolf, 22, is the top goaltender on TSN&#8217;s list. He was a seventh-round pick by the Flames back in 2019, and since being drafted he&#8217;s been named his league&#8217;s goaltender of the year four times in four seasons, and was also the American Hockey League&#8217;s most valuable player last season. He&#8217;s played in the NHL twice, looked good both times, and is generally regarded as the Flames&#8217; goaltender of the future. He&#8217;s quite good at stopping pucks and is currently doing so with the AHL&#8217;s Calgary Wranglers.
Coronato, 20, was the Flames&#8217; first-round selection in 2021. He was a top scorer with Harvard University for two seasons, then went pro with the Flames at the tail-end of last season. He&#8217;s split this season so far between the Flames and Wranglers; he&#8217;s got a scorer&#8217;s instincts and a great release, but the rest of his game could use a bit of cleaning up. He&#8217;s impressing with the Wranglers so far, so a return to the NHL may not be too far off.
