Woll stopped 31 of 36 shots in Friday's 5-4 overtime loss against the Panthers in Game 3.

Due to the absence of Anthony Stolarz (upper body), Woll has played in Toronto's last three games, and he's given up at least three goals in each of his starts. The Maple Leafs hold a 2-1 in the series, but Woll's numbers haven't delivered much confidence. He's gone 2-1 with a 3.99 GAA and an .869 save percentage this postseason.

Per Luke Fox of Sportsnet, Stolarz (upper body) is "progressing" but has yet to return to the ice, according to coach Craig Berube on Saturday.

Stolarz was injured in Game 1 and missed Games 2 and 3. It appears that he is doubtful for Game 4 on Sunday in Florida, but he has not been ruled out of Game 5 in Toronto on Wednesday. Stolarz is 4-2 with a 2.19 GAA and a .901 save percentage across seven playoff appearances in 2025.

Hellebuyck posted a 21-save shutout in Friday's 4-0 win over the Stars in Game 2.

Hellebuyck's faced plenty of criticism in the postseason, but he proved why he's one of the NHL's best goalies in this contest. The 31-year-old didn't face a lot of traffic Friday, but he never gave the Stars a chance of a comeback. He's stopped 42 of 45 shots across two games in the second round and looks to be more confident, though he'll have to face his road woes in Sunday's Game 3 in Dallas.

Oettinger stopped 21 of 24 shots in Friday's 4-0 loss to the Jets in Game 2. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.

Tyler Seguin took a double-minor for high-sticking on the first shift, and that set the Stars back immediately. The Jets cashed in on the power play and managed the lead for the rest of the game, leaving Oettinger with no help in this loss. The series is now tied at 1-1, and Oettinger has stopped 50 of 55 shots over two games against the Jets. He'll look to get back on track on home ice in Game 3 on Sunday.

Oettinger will protect the road goal in Game 2 versus the Jets on Friday, Tracey Myers of NHL.com reports.

Oettinger shook off his Game 1 demons Wednesday, making 29 saves in a 3-2 win to give the Stars a rare 1-0 series lead. The 26-year-old will look to turn in a repeat effort in Game 2, and if he can do so, the Stars are set to head home with a formidable 2-0 series lead.

Hellebuyck will protect the home goal versus the Stars in Game 2 on Friday, Tracey Myers of NHL.com reports.

Hellebuyck took his first home loss of the postseason in Game 1, giving up three goals on 24 shots. He'll look to even the series in Game 2, though he'll have to contend with a Stars offense that has been coming up clutch in recent contests.

Bobrovsky will protect the home goal versus the Maple Leafs on Friday in Game 3, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports.

Bobrovsky has allowed nine goals on 50 shots while losing the first two games of the second-round series. He'll look to right the ship on home ice, where he was 20-9-2 with a 2.36 GAA and a .908 save percentage over 31 regular-season games. He also went 1-1 with six goals allowed on 41 shots over two home games versus the Lightning in the first round.

Woll is slated to start on the road against Florida in Game 3 on Friday.

Woll is 2-0 with a 4.01 GAA and an .875 save percentage across two playoff appearances against the Panthers. The Maple Leafs have turned to him because Anthony Stolarz is unavailable due to an upper-body injury. Florida ranks fourth in the postseason with 3.71 goals per game.

Skarek signed a contract with HIFK of Finland's Liiga, Stefen Rosner of The Hockey News reports Friday.

Skarek was set to become an unrestricted free agent this summer after posting a record of 0-1-0 with a 3.95 GAA and an .872 save percentage across two appearances with the Islanders this season. He also had a 3.52 GAA and an .884 save percentage in 22 outings with AHL Bridgeport in 2024-25. The 25-year-old was selected by the Islanders with the No. 72 overall pick in the 2018 NHL Draft, but he's struggled in the AHL, so Skarek will look for better results in Europe.

Lindgren (personal) returned to practice Friday, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.

Lindgren had a family matter to deal with and did not dress Thursday in Game 2 as Mitchell Gibson backed up starter Logan Thompson. Lindgren is slated to back up Thompson in Game 3 on Saturday. Lindgren was 20-14-3 with one shutout, a 2.73 GAA and an .894 save percentage across 39 regular-season appearances in 2024-25.
