Toronto Maple Leafs go in peculiar direction for starting goaltender against Vegas
Tonight, the Toronto Maple Leafs are going up against the Las Vegas Golden Knights in what should be a pretty good game.
As many fans are already aware, the Maple Leafs are currently riddled with injuries, albeit mostly to the offense.
Auston Matthews, Max Domi, Max Pacioretty, Ryan Reaves, and David Kampf are all out for one reason or another.
Overall, the Maple Leafs are struggling with those injuries, but they do have some pretty good call-ups.
For instance, fans are very excited about players such as Fraser Minten and even Alex Steeves.
Heading into tonight's game, fans have been curious as to who would be the starting netminder for this game.
Of course, Anthony Stolarz has been sensational, while Joseph Woll has been alright since his return from injury.
Surprisingly, the job tonight is being given to Woll, even if he has had some ups and downs in his first five starts.
Maple Leafs promote Joseph Woll
As many fans are aware, Woll has a record of 3-2 which is nothing worth writing home about.
Moreover, his goals against average of 2.40 and his save percentage off .902 leaves a lot to be desired.
However, heading into this season, the Leafs were expected to have Woll as their starter. Fans can see this as Craig Berube just giving his goaltender a proper chance to prove himself.
The Leafs are in the midst of a sensational stretch of hockey where they have won five of their last six games.
Furthermore, they continue to hold strong in the Atlantic Division with a record of 11-6-2.
While they are far away from being better than a team like the Florida Panthers, they are still showing gumption, which is important to see.
We are wishing Woll luck tonight in his latest assignment.
