Dustin Michael Tokarski (born September 16, 1989) is a Canadian professional ice hockey goaltender currently playing with the Chicago Wolves in the American Hockey League (AHL). He was born in Humboldt, Saskatchewan, but grew up in neighbouring Watson, which he considers his hometown.[1][2]
Tokarski led the Spokane Chiefs of the Western Hockey League (WHL) to the 2008 Memorial Cup and was named the top goaltender and most valuable player of the tournament. Tokarski then backstopped Canada to their fifth consecutive gold medal at the 2009 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships. He was originally drafted by the Tampa Bay Lightning in the fifth round, 122nd overall, at the 2008 NHL Entry Draft. He has won the American Hockey League's (AHL) Calder Cup twice: first with the Norfolk Admirals in 2012, and then with the Charlotte Checkers in 2019.
