Maple Leafs' Joseph Woll: Suspect goals lead to loss
Joseph Woll made 20 saves on 23 shots in a 4-2 loss to St. Louis on Saturday. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.He was OK, but he allowed two goals on point shots that should generally be stoppable for NHL goalies. Woll has talent but needs to establish consistency before fantasy managers can rely on him. After returning from an early-season groin issue, he allowed seven goals in two losses to the Blues and had a brilliant win over the Kraken on Thursday.

Maple Leafs' Joseph Woll: Bounces back Thursday
Joseph Woll made 24 saves in a 4-1 win over Seattle on Thursday.It was a strong outing for Woll -- he came within 3:28 of a shutout, but Eeli Tolvanen put it past his blocker while on a 6-on-5 advantage with Joey Daccord on the bench. It was a nice bounce back from his 5-1 loss to St. Louis on Oct. 24 and could warrant a start in the Leafs' next game, a revenge match against St. Louis on Saturday. If not, Woll will be in net on Sunday, as Toronto plays Minnesota in a back-to-back.

Maple Leafs' Joseph Woll: Rough night in season debut
Joseph Woll (lower body) made 22 saves Thursday in a 5-1 loss to the Blues.It was Woll's first game of the season after missing seven games to groin tightness, and he looked rusty. He was out of shape and angle at times, and he didn't track the puck well. Woll even told reporters after the game that he'd like to have at least two of the goals back. Watch for him to be eased into action given the strength of Anthony Stolarz to begin to the season. Woll and Stolarz will likely end up splitting starts, but right now, the Leafs will likely go with the hot hand more often than not.

Maple Leafs' Joseph Woll: Practicing Friday
Joseph Woll (lower body) is participating in a full practice Friday, Dave McCarthy of NHL.com reports.This is Woll's first full practice since he was placed on injured reserve Oct. 8. The netminder was set to share the net with Anthony Stolarz this season, and should do so upon his return. Woll was 12-11-1 with a 2.93 GAA and a .907 save percentage in 25 regular-season appearances in 2023-24, but those numbers should improve this season, as the Toronto Maple Leafs are stronger defensively in 2024-25. Look for Dennis Hildeby to return to AHL Toronto when Woll is activated.

Maple Leafs' Joseph Woll: Placed on injured reserve
Joseph Woll (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday, per the NHL media site.Woll's placement on IR is somewhat surprising, as he was still in contention to get the starting nod versus New Jersey on Thursday. However, he'll be forced to miss at least a week and won't be eligible to return until at least Oct. 16, when the Toronto Maple Leafs face off against the Kings. In Woll's absence, Anthony Stolarz and Dennis Hildeby should see increased playing time.
