Max Domi had some high praise for Joseph Woll after he came in to secure the victory against Tama Bay, even comparing him to this future hall-of-fame goalie.
Woll Comes in for Relief and Plays Huge Role in Comeback Victory
Last night's game didn't get off to the start that the Leafs were hoping for, as they went down 3-1 to the Tampa Bay Lightning in the first period. Two of the goals came from outside shots, which prompted Sheldon Keefe to make a switch in net from Ilya Samsonov to Joseph Woll.

Woll ended up playing an outstanding game, not allowing a single goal and making several huge stops to keep the Leafs in striking distance in order to complete the comeback.

Domi Compares Woll to Cary Price After Recent Victory
The impressive performance had Woll's teammates showering him with praise after the game, and Max Domi went as far as comparing him to legendary goalie Carey Price.
Domi on Woll: "He really kind of reminds me of Carey Price in his demeanour. He's very calm and relaxed both on and off the ice. A big body and moves technically sound. I'm not a goalie coach by any means but he's been outstanding."
Keefe has confirmed that Woll will make the start in the Leafs' next game against Washington.
