Projected starting goalie for tonight's game against the Panthers revealed
The Toronto Maple Leafs are back home tonight and will look to get back on track tonight against the Florida Panthers after losing their last two games on Friday and Saturday in Chicago and Pittsburgh.
Coming into this one, nobody was sure who would get the nod for tonight's game against the Panthers, as both Ilya Samsonov and Joseph Woll have experienced their fair share of ups and downs this season. Well, now we have our answer.
The 25-year-old Woll stopped 32 of 35 shots in a 3-2 loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins on Saturday night, and will be the projected starter for Tuesday's game.
Woll has a record of 6-5-0 this season with a 2.92 goals-against average and .910 save percentage. He will be facing a Panthers team who is averaging 3 goals per game, so he'll have to be sharp to keep his team in the game.
Florida is currently second in the Atlantic Division, four points ahead of Toronto with two more games played. The Panthers are, however, coming off of a rough outing against the Ottawa Senators last night, so the Leafs do have the advantage of being better rested coming into this one.
Puck drop tonight is set to occur just after 7:00PM ET.
