Joseph Woll, who faced the Carolina Hurricanes on Friday night, is starting in Stolarz’s place. This will be Woll’s sixth start in the last seven games.

While the Maple Leafs have too many goalies, this is not a solution to that issue. The hope is that nothing is seriously wrong with the netminder. He’s not had the greatest season and has dealt with injuries, but the puck to the throat is a very dangerous and scary thing.
