The Maple Leafs had a tough decision to make when it came to their playoff starter. It has now been confirmed. <h3>Ilya Samsonov Gets the Start</h3> While entering the season, it appeared Matt Murray would get the job as starter for the Maple Leafs playoffs, as the season went along, Ilya Samsonov stole the job. <div align='center' class='pl20 pr20'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/koshtorontosun/status/1647280480780165122'>https://twitter.com/koshtorontosun/status/1647280480780165122</a></blockquote></div> Murray's health woes, combined with Samsonov's stellar consistency made the decision rather easy.
