Dustin Wolf's story

Born in Gilroy, California, Dustin Wolf began skating as a toddler and concentrated on goaltending from about age five. His family moved within California during his youth, and he spent seven seasons with the Los Angeles Junior Kings, including a trip to the 2014 Quebec International Pee-Wee Hockey Tournament. Those formative years produced steady statistical gains that paved the way for a move into major junior hockey.
