Leafs make surprising last minute change to lineup
Following the Toronto Maple Leafs' morning skate, head coach Sheldon Keefe did not confirm who would be starting in goal tonight. Although Ilya Samsonov was first off the ice at practice, as the starting goalie usually is, Joseph Woll led the Leafs out onto the ice for the pre-game skate indicating he will be starting tonight against the Boston Bruins.
When Keefe was asked about his starting goalie earlier today he noted that he did not want Woll to be out of action for too long. Woll last played on Thursday against the Arizona Coyotes where he stopped 30 of 32 shots in his first game with the Leafs since his ankle injury.
In 16 games for the Leafs this season, Woll has posted a 9-5-1 record with a 2.74 GAA and .918 save percentage, but will face his toughest test of the season tonight, there's no question about it.
